Provenance:
Not sure where we got this one from though it’s fairly modern and could still be bought from Needle Sports in 2009 see advert below Camp – Universale Soft Carbon steel pegs that are designed to deform into the shape of the crack that they are inserted into. In otherwords these are designed for a one off placement to provide a permanant fixture – ie not suitable for Scottish winter or alpine climbing.
