I've got a set of Kong Slider nuts that I'm looking for the tech specs on. I've already tried Kong.it to no avail. They swear up and down that it's not theirs even though it says kong bonaiti right on the friggin nuts.



Thanks for the help,

Supra

They are SLIDER NUTS and plenty of info in the How to Climb books and anchor books.

There is no Cam in this piece of gear.

They are probably quite old.
I cant remember seeing them in a kong catalogue, but i think i have heard about them once.
I think they work similar to ball nuts, but i might be wrong. But yes, there should be info on how to use them in some older books.

Cam, Wedge, Slider, etc. In the interest of keeping it civil I've changed the Subject title.

Considering I own a set of Camp BallNutz, Tech nuts camming wedges and this Kong set it's safe to say I'm familiar with their usage. That said, what I specifically asked was for their tech specs.
Maybe I'm just anal but I actually like to know what my gear is rated to hold before i start falling on them.
