The Wild Country Helium clean wire is a top quality wiregate designed for elite climbers everywhere. It has the ultimate combination of extreme lightweight, high strength and a 'Clean-wire' no hook nose. When the Helium concept was initially launched a major focus was to make a wire gate but with none of the traditional drawbacks a wire has; that they can hook up on bolts or wires, can unclip more easily than snap gates, and are susceptible to opening if lying against the rock. The solution was the 'Clean-wire' hooded nose and the new flat-wire gate. This ensures the gate is covered within the nose, preventing all the traditional wire gate problems from occuring. The Helium Clean Wire was the first carabiner to use the "I-beam" construction that makes steel girders strong yet light. This application results in a significantly improved strength to weight ratio. Weight: 33g
