Black Diamond Oval Carabiner

Big wall climbers, stop looking at those anodized new-fangled 'biners and pick up the time-tested Black Diamond Oval Carabiner. The Oval Carabiner's rounded design eliminates 'biner shift on aid placements and is ideal for racking gear on both trad routes and aid climbs. The Black Diamond Oval has remained unchanged for years. After all, why would you mess with something so simple and functional?

Bottom Line: The Black Diamond Oval Carabiner is the big wall standard.

Quality 'biner

If you need a durable carabiner with tight gates, this is a good choice. Also great for hanging & hauling. As good as the aging Chouinard's.

I bought some of these biners for my slackline and they work great. They definitely last longer then any others that I have used.

great for aid climbing, no rocking on those tenuous placements! slightly heavier than the wire gates, but still, a must-have!

No shifting, please!

Save, reliable, perfect for aiding! If you have a super heavy rack, may be worth it to get the Ovalwire biners to save a bit of weight. Otherwise, you can't beat these for the money!

Ultra-classic. If you need 6000 biners, quality and price are right. Better technology exists. Perfect for rigging, slack-lining, aid racks, guiding/outdoor programs, and the like.
