Why We Like The Dyneema Contact Sling
Mammut works hard each year to make its Dyneema Contact Sling lighter without taking away any of its strength. Like most slings, Mammut made it out of super strong and light Dyneema, but unlike most slings, Mammut's Contact stitching technique ensures optimum handling and strength throughout the sling, even in the seam area. This makes it ready to please you whether you're sending sandstone, climbing crack, cranking ice, or alpine climbing your way to the top.

Great Quality Sling
Very soft and supple sling. Knots tie well with it, but the 8.0mm width can be a pain with overhands to untie. The 240cm length was great for a bigger quad anchor, or a relatively compact 3 or 4 piece trad anchor. Takes up much less space than cordellette on my harness.

Good for alpine draws
Good for alpine draws, stitching is a little thick.

The thin slings are great for alpine draws, minimizing bulk on the harness.

Fave Slings
These are my go-to slings. Easy handling- tag sewn flat over the low profile bar tack mitigates snagging. 60s and 120s get regular use for alpines, and the 240 is a great super light option/alternative to cord for anchors. Will continue to replace most of my older slings with these as they wear out.

These are the best dyneema slings on the market. Lightweight with great stitching where the loop connects so it slides through carabiners smoothly and rarely gets snagged, making extending your alpines a breeze. My preferred slings to make alpine draws with. The 240cm one is great to make gear anchors with as well. They look nice too, good colors.

Great for quad anchors
The thin profile makes these great for building quad anchors. The sewn part is also thin and doesn't have the ends sticking out, so they don't get caught like other slings. Lots of uses... anchor building, alpine draws, prusiks, makeshift harness or ascender.

For the size, weight, and inline sewing of the loop connection point, you can't go wrong with the Mammut Contact Sling line!

Good all around dyneema sling
Easy to tie and untie knots. The stiffer and larger sling are easier to untie knots. The Stitching are rounded. Therefore, it doesn't snag as much as other sling, especially on alpine draw. The way it is sewn makes it less stiff which is nice, but it makes it also less durable regarding abbrasion on rock. note: the main difference between dyneema sling is the way it is sewn.

Solid sling for trad anchors
I bought this sling (180 cm) to add to my options for building trad anchors. I now prefer using this sling to cordelette because it is lower bulk, lighter weight, and the stitching doesn't get in the way as much as a cordelette knot. I particularly like carrying this when I'm leading multipitch climbs, where I need to carry two anchors because I'm not swinging leads. It really helps cut down on weight and saves space on my harness (compared to carrying two cordelettes).
