Superior Strength-to-Weight Efficiency for Professionals
The high-capacity aluminium construction delivers a massive 30 kN breaking load while weighing only 75 g (2.65 oz). This design provides industrial-grade safety for technicians without compromising the portability of their equipment. The D-shape geometry ensures the connector stays correctly aligned under heavy tension.
Enhanced Security via Triple-Lock Gate Technology
The Triple Lock mechanism requires three distinct actions to open, preventing accidental gate release in complex environments. A keylock closure prevents the nose from snagging on ropes or hangers during clipping. The 20 mm gate opening allows for easy integration with various textile and hardware components.
Frequently Asked Questions
What safety standards does this carabiner meet?
This hardware is fully certified to EN 362 standards for professional connectors. This certification ensures the device meets rigorous technical requirements for fall protection and work-at-height applications. It is suitable for use in professional safety systems globally.
How does the triple lock mechanism function?
The Triple Lock mechanism is an automatic locking gate that requires three separate movements to unlock. This provides a higher security level than standard screwgate or twist-lock models. The gate automatically snaps shut and locks securely once released by the user.
What is the major axis breaking strength?
The unit provides a maximum breaking load of 30 kN (6,744 lbs) along its major axis. This makes it a high-strength power pack among lightweight aluminum connectors. Such capacity is essential for heavy-duty rigging and rescue operations.
Is the gate design snag-resistant?
Yes, this model features a keylock closure mechanism for optimum handling. The smooth nose design ensures snag-free clipping and unclipping from bolts or webbing. This feature significantly improves efficiency when managing complex rope systems.
What are the dimensions and weight of the unit?
The carabiner weighs exactly 75 g (2.65 oz), making it highly efficient for gear-heavy tasks. It measures 110 mm (4.33 in) in length and 65 mm (2.56 in) in width. These compact dimensions provide a stable and easy-to-handle profile for all-day use.
