Black Diamond Pick Protector

A protective cover for ice tool picks designed to prevent sharp pick tips from contacting pack fabric, rope, and adjacent gear during transport and storage, the Pick Protector from Black Diamond uses translucent TPU construction that stretches over the pick of most ice tools without requiring size selection. The translucent material allows the user to identify which tool is sheathed without removing the protector, and the TPU's elastic properties maintain retention on picks of varying curvature profiles through temperature cycles that would cause a stiffer material to loosen. The stretch-fit TPU construction rated for most standard ice tool pick profiles makes the Pick Protector the single-size answer for alpinists who want pick protection during approach carries without managing multiple sizes or tool-specific covers.
