layton Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Anyone have any personal favorite biners they have used with a tibloc on a fatter rope. What the thinnest spined biner at bend where the tibloc would lay? So far the best biner I tested (including the Metolius micro and camp nano) was a Mammum wiregate with 0639 stamped on it I found and was using as a bail biner. I found that the diameter of the apex of the biner was important, but also the lesser curved the better. More curvy topped biners pinched the rope more since there was more of a "point" to jab into the rope. Yeah, boring shit I know... but for backing up a jumar set-up, or simul-climbing with a tiblock (Tiblocking), it would be nice to find the smoothest set-up out there. Quote
