Go lighter on alpine sends with the Camalot Ultralight—strength and grams that count

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"I shaved serious weight off my rack with the Camalot Ultralights. For long alpine routes or fast-and-light missions, every gram counts. These offer the same confidence-inspiring lobes and ranges as the standard C4s, but ditch the extra heft. They’re bomber, easy to place, and they’re a game-changer on the sharp end."


When we're heading deep into the backcountry or eyeing a long alpine route, we need every ounce of weight savings we can get without sacrificing performance. Black Diamond’s Camalot Ultralight gives us that perfect balance. These cams retain the trusted double-axle design and color-coded slings of the classic C4s, but drop nearly 25% of the weight thanks to the use of Dyneema slings and sculpted lobes. That translates to faster movement on route, easier packing, and less pump at the crux.


Whether we’re climbing in the Bugaboos or linking pitches in the Wind Rivers, we rely on these cams for their consistent placement, smooth handling, and reliable hold. Their unique cable-stem construction is flexible yet sturdy, making them ideal for tricky placements or wandering lines. When we’re moving light and fast, Ultralights are the cams we reach for first.
