Black Diamond Express Ice Screw 13cm

Without question these are the easiest and fastest placing ice screws to ever sink their way into ice. This year the renowned Express has been improved by a redesigned tooth geometry for easier starts, added larger crank knobs that are easier to grab, and an augmented hanger with a second clip-in point for belay organization.

Quick to bite and easy to crank in, the Express screw features a tapered tube where the teeth cut a hole just larger than the tube itself for less friction and faster placements when ice climbing. The foldable speed-drive knob is color-coded for quick length identification and offers uninterrupted 360-degree motion. New stainless steel hangers are lighter than previous models, they won't rust and they reduce melt-out on sunny routes. The Express is built in five lengths to accommodate a variety of ice conditions.
