From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Camp USA Ball Nuts (Spring 2008) Use Ball Nuts by Camp USA in cracks too thin for standard protection like camming units and nuts. Expansion range ratio of 2:1 in each of five sizes. Suitable for cracks ranging from 3 to 18 mm. Sold individually. Specifications: Thin crack protection 5 sizes to fit cracks ranging from 3 to 18 mm Expansion range ration of 2:1 in each of five sizes All rated to withstand 8 kN fall Color coded for easy identification Weight: 29 to 73 g"

From Backcountry.com:
"CAMP USA Ball Nuts are the only choice for hammerless aid-climbing protection in thin, parallel-sided cracks. When the going gets thin, pull the trigger and place a Ball Nut in a crack as narrow as 3mm. Release the trigger and opposing forces of the brass ball and aluminum nut holds these tiny pieces of protection in place where their 8kN-strength (1798lb-force) is ready to save your hide if you log some air time. Much faster and easier on the rock than banging in a knifeblade, CAMP Ball Nuts are the last word in protecting thin free climbs and saving time on aid-climbing lines."

"These are the only gear (apart from pitons) that will go into ultra thin cracks ie smaller than a black alien."
