chirp Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) Looking to sell all my ironmongery, been too long and I have other interests longing for upgrades. These are some classic pins and some rares, they have seen little use but have been exposed to a moist environment so have acquired some rust and corrosion. BUT, being pitons, that really isnt an issue and I have cleaned them up a bit, still absolutely serviceable and waiting for the next incipient seam or rotten crack. I looked em up and figured an average of 5 bucks a pin. Prefer to sell as a whole set for $300 bucks obo (58 pieces total). Absolutely no shipping, I will gladly deliver to Seattle or any area within a decent distance. If you live far away we can make arrangements. Please send a PM or email me at chirp at eyejuggler dot com Thanks for looking. Pile of iron Fish products, Captain Hook and the smaller version Leeper Z pins and Lost Arrows (DMM versions) Hooks and Beaks (Pika, A5, Black Diamond, FISH) Angles and Blades.

trumpetsailor Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 It is possible for corrosion to have deleterious effects on the strength of metal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_corrosion_cracking If I were in the market for pitons, I'd probably give yours a look; that's quite a set.

chirp Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 True on the corrosion, there were a couple of biners and a stopper in with the pins that were a crusty mess, unusable and gnarly. But the pins look fine, I have clipped many in situ pins that have been in the rock for 30 years or more and look like hell and think little of it Considering the abuse these things take I don't believe a little rust is an issue. Good point though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
