Quickdraw

Quickdraw is a device used in rock climbing and mountaineering that connects the climber’s rope to protection points like bolts or gear embedded in the rock. It consists of two rigid carabiners linked by a solid or wire gate, allowing quick and secure attachment and detachment. Quickdraws enable climbers to move efficiently while reducing rope friction and protecting against falls. They are essential for safety, helping distribute the force of a fall and facilitating smooth progression along the route.
