The clean climbing revolution of the 1970’s started with the stopper. Now, Black Diamond Stoppers are essential for every trad rack, designed with a transverse taper that permits sideways placements in flares and shallow seams.
From clean climbing, to conservation, Black Diamond is committed to protecting the people and places we love.

"Great quality. I would've liked it even more if the stoppers came on a oval biner rather than the wiregate biner it comes with, but thats just my personal prefrence."
"These stoppers are great! I never had color coded stoppers before and its nice that they follow the color coding that BD uses for their cams as well. I've been enjoying placing these."
"Best protection. Never used better"
"Easy to use and place, easy to differentiate between the sizes, and overall a great stopper set."
"So glad they sell this starting at 4 never used anything smaller"
"A classic set of stoppers. Essential to any starter rack."
"No problems so far, love the small ones."
"These stoppers can handle anything thrown at em! They stand up to everyday challenges. Trust em with my life!"
"Simple design. Easy to use. Can’t beat a good solid nut placement. Great for building anchors or backing something up. Inexpensive protection every trad climber should have in their bag."
"Great variety of sizes for the common climber. You’ll have no problem finding a stopper for a finger/ish sized constriction. Comes with a wire gate carabiner to attach to your harness or sling. Don’t forget to buy the nut removal tool too!"
