From EMS:
"Climbers love TCUs for their reduced weight, tenacious grip, thin seams, old pin scars, and easy placement in cracks. Metolius has maximized holding power in the TCU by optimizing cam angle and widening the cam face for greater surface area. While the range might be lower than other cams, their weight, versatility, and reliable function have earned them a place in most racks. Range Finder markings on #2, #3, and #4, tell you at a glance if you've chosen the right size cam for the placement. CNC machined 7075 T-6 aluminum with machined cam stops; 25% lighter than older TCUs. Direct Axle Technology makes Ultralight TCUs lightweight, allows for more placement options, and simplifies tricky placements due to better cam lobe visibility. Optimized cam angle for more outward force; wider cam faces for more grip; reduces the chance of failure due to rock breakage. U-shaped body for greater durability and unparalleled control during placement and retraction. 13 mm Dyneema sling is lighter and less bulky. Narrow head width for the most placement options; ideal aid-climbing piece. Color-coded sewn slings and tubing for fast recognition (#00 Grey, #0 Purple, #1 Blue, #2 Yellow, #3 Orange, #4 Red). Follow all manufacturers instructions; strength is dependent on proper placement, rock strength, depth, and direction of fall."

Now with the Range Finder feedback system, they are easier and safer to place than ever! The stainless steel, U-shaped body offers greater durability than single-stem units and unparalleled control during placement and retraction. As with all Metolius cams, the design is focused on holding power. Metolius TCUs are a must-have for any climber's rack!By going direct to the axle (D.A.T.) we have made the world’s best selling mini cam even lighter and more versatile. This new technology makes our TCU’s the lightest units in the world, opens up a myriad of placement options and makes placement easier. The design is focused on holding power, and we do this with our optimized cam angle for mo"
