Description

Our Cypher Huevos are the best wired units available. We tumble the heads extra long making them easier to place and handle. Constructed of the finest 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum available. The steel cable is galvanized and then swaged with copper sleeves, increasing the unit's overall strength and durability. Each Huevo is then tested to half its rated strength to ensure quality and performance.

The Cypher Huevos are the winner of our Best Buy Award because they are the best nut you can buy for the price. They are solidly designed and perform equally as well as the Black Diamond Stoppers and the CAMP Pro Nuts but for significantly less money. We still like models like the DMM Alloy Offsets, Black Diamond Offset Stoppers, and DMM Peenuts better for all-around and particularly harder trad climbing. But we really appreciate the utility of the Huevos, and their price means you are less likely to hesitate backing up a rappel or leaving a few behind if you need to bail to avoid that precarious downclimb. This makes them our Lead Tester's go-to nut for climbing and guiding on more remote routes in the North Cascades.
