    Description

    Set of 4 early CCH Climbing Aliens from 3/8 to 3/4. Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
    These Aliens are great for Trad climbing and are especially good in granite and sandstone where there are pin scars or shallow placements. It's their narrow head width that makes them great for pin scars and their soft metal cams make them great for gripping the rock. Also the flexible stems make for easy and reliable placements.
    Sizes are: Yellow 3/4  is from 0.6 - 1"
    Green 1/2  is from 0.53 - 0.86"
    Blue    3/8  is from 0.39 - 0.67"
    There was a recall in 2006 but I bought these well before that and would not dream of selling them if I had any problems with them. I mainly used them for free climbing but they are highly regarded for aid climbing. You will see that they are not very well worn & this is because they weren't used a great deal & never took any falls. However, it is best to be cautious and maybe have the slings renewed & the devices tested if possible.
    I stopped climbing in 2014 so they have been sitting unused since then.
