Black Diamond Camalot C4

Black Diamond Camalot C4 Review



Black Diamond Camalot C4 Feature

  • Black Diamond's best selling and most trusted camming device
  • Double-axle design offers widest range for each cam unit
  • C-loop continyous cable stem design is strong & durable
  • Color codes for easy identification
  • Weighs 2.65oz to 1lb 4oz
Increasing your chances of grabbing a cam that fits, the Camalot's double-axle design allows retraction of larger cam lobes, giving these cams a much larger expansion range than single-axle units. Because loading forces are shared between both axles, this design has the strength to work as a full-strength cam stop, letting you use the cam as passive pro and adding security if the unit walks back into a wider part of a crack and umbrellas. This is the third generation of BD Camalots and they just keep getting better. The cable loop trigger is easy to grab, and the slings are large enough to manipulate with gloves.
