Clyde's Cam Charts

Sorted by Size

THIS IS VERY OUT OF DATE!

Go to the sort by brand for the latest models.

This chart shows the true sizes of most of the camming units currently available. Unlike other charts and catalogs that just give minimums and maximums you can't use, this provides the functional range of each piece.

In other words, here's what you can expect in the real world for a placement that's probably worth trusting (insert massive disclaimer here about rock quality, conditions, use at your own risk, prices may be wrong, yada, yada, yada).

Usable min = absolute minimum plus 10% of range.
Usable max = absolute minimum plus 60% of range.
(These numbers are fairly accurate, based upon manual checks with calipers, but you have to decide what is a sound placement. In some cases, I've deviated from the basic formula to give a more realistic size range.)

Min width = all cams fully engaged and bolt or cable on one side.
Weight = from a calibrated scale (1 gram resolution).
~ = number guestimated off of catalog specs.
