Stubai Bong piton

The Stubai Bong piton is intended for developers of alpine routes. It is also frequently used by big wall climbers. It is characterized on the one hand by its wide shaft with V-profile. On the other hand, it has three distinctive carabiner eyelets. This means that it offers piton the option of clipping it in at different depths.

This product is a hard steel hook. Consequently, it is predestined for rock types such as granite, gneiss and slate.

This normal hook builds up a lot of tension thanks to its extremely wide V-profile. It is therefore the perfect hook for wide cracks. However, you need to find the right crack for this.

Firstly, wide cracks from purple Camalot size 0.5 are suitable. Secondly, in corresponding slits. And thirdly, compact scales.

Perfect belay station Hook

The Stubai Bong piton is very popular as a piton. On the one hand because it holds so well. Secondly, because of the three carabiner eyelets. They are perfect for attaching webbing slings and cordalettes. Carabiners can also be attached, of course.

Practical tip – Stubai Bong piton

For this extremely long hook you need a rock hammer with a lot of “punch”. Because the hook creates a lot of resistance. Due to its length on the one hand. And the V-profile on the other. So it only makes sense to buy it if you have a suitable hammer. You want to generate a lot of impact energy. This is only possible with appropriate power and mass. A very light, small rock hammer would be useless here.

We recommend the Kong Bigwall Hammer Eagle or Kong Bigwall Hammer Eagle Light.
