Salewa North-x Hammer ICE AXE
"The North-X Hammer ice axe from Salewa is an indispensable tool for demanding mountaineers and climbers who move on Nordic routes and in extreme alpine environments. This versatile ice tool is ideal for activities such as hiking, mountaineering, alpine tours and climbing. It offers outstanding balance and swing behavior thanks to its 20u00b0 cambered shaft and balanced weight distribution, which enables efficient placement in ice and rock."
"A remarkable feature of the North-X is the one-handed, tool-free height-adjustable hand rest, which ensures optimum grip on steep terrain and does not hinder ascent and descent. The aggressive, replaceable pick sits securely in any terrain and the insulating plastic grip zone protects against cold, which is particularly beneficial on long tours. The replaceable carbide pick tip offers additional grip on icy terrain"
"The ice axe is also equipped with a standing sling that has a tensile strength of 5 kN, making it suitable for self-belaying. It can be used with a shovel and hammer and offers the option of integrating various spare parts and accessories such as PICK GUARD and SPIKE FOR ICE AXE. The head and blade are made of robust steel, while the shaft is made of 7075 aluminum, which ensures durability and reliability. The North-X Hammer ice axe is a versatile and robust companion for every mountaineer"
