The Radion is
the most advanced ice screw available. A unique
hanger rotates independently on the shaft,
ensuring the force of a fall is applied at
the optimal angle. The Radion features a reverse
angle on the threads (flat side towards the
ice), to distribute pressure more uniformly
in brittle ice.
Placing a Radion is greatly simplified
by the aggressive front teeth, an ultra-smooth
shaft, and a stiff lever arm with a rotating
knob. The 12-mm color-coded Dyneema sling
saves the weight and hassle of an extra
draw. With a carabiner pre-attached—the
Nano 23 or Orbit Wire are ideal—you
can be moving upwards faster than ever.
The screw can be placed or removed while
clipped to the rope ensuring it will never
get dropped. A carabiner hole on the steel
hanger gives a second option for racking.
