…Climbing equipment. Also called piton (French). A steel nail that is driven into rock or ice to serve as a anchor or handhold when climbing rock or ice walls. … From [Rock Climbing]...This means that the force is not directly transmitted to the belay person, and the friction caused by the angle of the anchor and the elasticity of the rope itself weaken the impact force in the event of a fall. An anchor is generally made by driving a piton (a metal nail with a ring at the top, also called a piton) into a small crack in the rock and attaching a carabiner to it. These two tools, together with a hammer for driving the piton, are called the three tools for rock climbing. The embedded bolt invented after the war can be used to create an anchor on vertical rock walls and overhangs without cracks, so that the leader who is secured by two ropes can use stirrups to develop difficult routes one after another. This method of actively using tools as a means of climbing is called artificial climbing. ... *Some of the terminology explanations that mention "piton" are listed below.
