Guys, just wanted to point this out: The reason most of the wiregates squeak is because it appears they are not lubricated at all from factory. Get some DuPont Teflon Multi-Use lubricant or any dry graphite lubricant and give the gate hinges a good dose of it. You'll notice an immediate improvement in gate action and smoothness, and the squeaking will disappear. DO NOT use oil-based lubricants! They will pick up dirt FASTER and gum up your carabiners after only a few trips, requiring a cleaning session. Pain in the ace. Anyway, Joe, if you're reading this, you might want to consider lubing the wiregates from factory, as it'll improve the overall "fit and finish" of the 'biners.
