Get sports climbing quickdraws, quickdraw sets, and trad climbing quickdraws from top brands, including Black Diamond, Petzl, DMM, Ocun, Wild Country, and Beal.
A quickdraw consists of two carabiners connected by a length of webbing. This webbing provides some extension to gear placements meaning that the rope can run more freely and there’s less chance of your gear being flicked out by the rope. Most people will carry between 8 and 12 ‘draws of varying lengths for general sport and trad climbing. There are many different types of quickdraws, so it’s important to know what you are looking for. Sport climbing quickdraws are heavier and easier to grab, whereas alpine draws are lighter and usually feature a wired gate that is resistant to freezing and locking up.

The Petzl company was started by Fernand Petzl who had a passion for caving.
The Petzl company quickly applied its underground tools and solutions to other vertical environments: to the mountains first - rock climbing and mountaineering - and then to the professional sector, with work and rescue at height. Petzl is now known as the leading innovator in the vertical world and has been associated with all major underground, alpine, and Himalayan adventures since the 1970s.
