Quickdraws are essential pieces of climbing equipment used to connect the climbing rope to protection bolts or trad gear placements on a route. They consist of two carabiners connected by a sling (also known as a dogbone). The carabiner attached to the protection point typically has a straight gate, while the carabiner for rope clipping often features a bent gate for easier rope insertion. Quickdraws are primarily used in rock climbing, sport climbing, mountaineering, and aid climbing to reduce rope drag, prevent falls from directly loading the protection, and to allow for easier clipping. Slings are made from nylon, Dyneema, or a combination of materials, offering varying degrees of strength, weight, and water resistance. Lengths typically range from 12cm to 25cm or longer, depending on the application. Different quickdraws are made for different types of use. Sport draws tend to be durable with easy clipping carabiners, trad draws tend to be lighter with wiregates to reduce weight, and alpine draws are often extendable.
