DMM Dragon cams use a single stem with hot-forged cams mounted on a double axle—this gives better reach than single-axle models. However, even with the addition of a second axle, DMM has retained Ray Jardine's original cam angle of 13.75°, which maximizes holding power. The double Dyneema stretch strap saves you on slings and further reduces the weight of your protection set.

Dragon cams use relatively powerful springs—this means that they are a little harder to retract, but the benefits are worth it: they will sit more securely in placements and be less likely to pop out of their placement when the rock is smooth or the cracks are shallow. The trigger uses an extremely strong forged aluminum piece that is resistant to abuse and allows the use of an extendable lanyard.

Thanks to their torsional rigidity and larger contact surface, when the cams are placed in shallow vertical or horizontal cracks, the nuts are less likely to slip out of the placement. Finally, the Dragon's trigger is manufactured with deeper grooves for improved handling, even at arm's length.

DMM Dragon Cams Features:

• A lightweight, single-stem, two-axis mechanical cam with a greater expansion range than single-axis cams.
• This allows for use in a wider range of crack sizes, meaning you can carry fewer units to protect the same number of cracks. Hot-forged handle and trigger bar allows for quick placement and removal, as well as stable handling. The rigid trigger allows the cams to accommodate an extendable strap without sacrificing strength. Starting at size 1, Dragons have a strength rating of 14 kN.
• Hot-forged cam lobes to reduce weight.
• TripleGrip lobes improve performance. The contact areas are machined aluminum, providing better grip than anodized surfaces.
• These feature additional edges that catch crystals and other micro features, helping the Dragon increase grip and reduce movement.
• The lobes are also thickened, making them more robust under load and highly resistant to bending forces.
• Original cam angle of 13.75°
• 14kN in passive position (sizes 1-8)
• Equipped with 8mm Dyneema stretch straps
• Color-coded for quick identification
