Harfang Tech
Description
The ideal choice for ice climbing, mixed climbing, and technical mountaineering, thanks to its highly technical and lightweight design.
It comes with modular front spikes that can be configured as single point short/long, or double point short/long, making it adaptable to all types of challenging routes, from snow couloirs to ice climbing. The support provided by the crampon is stable, precise, and highly efficient.
The Harfang Tech also offers two attachment systems, automatic and semiautomatic.
The crampon is shipped with a low-profile compact toe bail, ensuring a perfect fit for mountain boots.
To make it compatible with ski boots, you can purchase the standard toe bail separately.

CertificationCertificationsThe main climbing gear certifications are CE and UIAA--and normally the UIAA creates the rules that the CE body also supports. When possible, we try to list all the certifications the product carries. To sell a climbing product in Europe, the device must be CE certified. There are no official requirements to sell climbing gear in the US. The UIAA certification is a voluntary process. Learn MoreRock and Ice Certifications Guide |
CE, EN, UIAA |
The UIAA equipment standard provides a baseline for equipment performance in a test lab under controlled conditions on new equipment. Although these test conditions are relevant to the conditions encountered climbing, conditions encountered at the crags and the condition of the equipment are equally important. This recommendation from the UIAA member federation The British Mountaineering Council (BMC) provides vital equipment information that is NOT explicitly addressed in the standard, particularly failure modes of the equipment and recommendations for the use, inspection, maintenance, and retirement of equipment.
