Mammut Tubular Dyneema 8mm Contact Slings are the ultimate slings for super-light alpine climbing or simply shaving ounces off your rack. What makes them so special? They weigh next to nothing, don't absorb water, don't freeze, and are more abrasion-resistant than nylon. Use the 60cm length for over-the-shoulder slings, the 120cm length for tying off horns and chockstones, and the 180cm length for an ultralight cordelette.
The patented Contact Stitching method and the high rigidity Dyneema fibre go to create these high performance lightweight slings. Perfect for using on belays or when climbing trad routes that wander. Super strong, incredibly lightweight, and made by one of the top rope manufacturers in the world, so they know their stuff.

Great Slings | |
| Rating: |  |
These are great all purpose slings at very low weight and bulk. They make killer alpine draws (way less bulky than nylon when doubled), but I get the most use out of the 180cm that I keep tied in an equalizing quad. Makes setting up belays off of two bolts a snap and is strong enough to hang you and your truck. These things are really great for everything, as long as you keep their limitations in mind (these things are skinny, so you don't want them rubbing against rock or sharp edges. Also, even though the jury is still out on this one, you should probably never girth hitch these to other slings). | |

Best sling I've seen and used out there. I've got 3 of the 120cm's for anchor building and long extensions and 15 of the 60cm's as my primary extendable slings (replaced all my dogbones). They are light, very light. The weave holds up great to abuse (no snagging), and the end connection is great (see the pic in past reviews, explained very well). It essentially feels like a continuous loop, which makes racking much easier. My 2yr old slings look brand new despite hard use from the Gunks to AZ to Thailand. | |

| Ive been rock climbing and spelunking for about five years now. While i wouldn't recommend the Dyneemas use in a caving situation where the environment is harsh, it is great for free climbs or speed climbs. Supper light and strong, most people are astounded that this 8mm piece of fabric can hold 5000 sheer pounds. I like Mammuts design better than black diamonds and other companies because where the band is stitched together its smooth and doesn't get caught. Only downside is that its so skinny it can get easily twisted | |

Cordelette Replacement | |
| Rating: | |
| Anchors can be made with any length of 6mm cord but this sling makes it possible to do the same thing without having to deal with the bulk, stiffness and difficulty of tying a knot in a cordelette. Granted, this is more expensive, but I find that the hassle spent with stiff cordelettes makes this worth it. Not only does it pack smaller, lighter and take up less space, There is no double fishermans knot to deal with. SWEET. | |

Durable and light | |

I've had a couple of these slings for about 4 years now, using it to add redundancy to my daisy chain. Its held up super well and hardly shows any sign of wear. The ultra slim profile and low weight makes it a great product. In the future I'll be replacing other shoulder length slings with these. FYI - I've only used them on dry rock. | |

Love these Slings! | |

| So a week ago I was climbing and I looked at these slings and thought I didn't need them for the climb I was on. Woops! Got to a section that had super dicy placements and needed a sling to equalize two marginal pieces. These things are so light there is no reason not to throw a few over your shoulder just in case. | |

Know their limits | |

As everyone has said - these are amazing, but don 't switch all your slings over. Depending on the rock and route, keep a few bulky slings on your rack for placements that will encounter edges. If nothing else, it feels good to know you have a lot of nylon running around that nasty edge. | |

My favorite sling | |
| Rating: | |
I use the 60cm sling for all of my extendable draws. They are lightweight and not bulky, but the Mammut label on the slings is a bit of a pain when you are tying them off. Although most of the time it's just a minor annoyance that is easily fixed. | |

Nylon slings are a thing of the past | |

| Awesome slings. Super lightweight, strong and did I mention light? So far, absolutely no complaints. I'm using the 24" ones for trad draws and I have a 48" I use for my personal safety while at the top of pitches. I love them for both of these uses. | |

Got wild one night on the internet, pulled out the credit card and ordered a bunch of these. It changed my life forever...I've been so happy since I switch all to Dyneema. This stuff is space age technology, space shuttle stuff! So light they seem to float. | |
