Black Diamond VaporLock Screwgate Carabiner

Item #BLD0994 | 2 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Great light 'biner

By Ranked #481 - Carabiners, Quickdraws, and Belay Devices November 21, 2008

Black Diamond makes great climbing products, and they continue to deliver with the VaporLock. I love these light-weight lockers -- great for trad and alpine climbing. As other reviewers here have suggested, you won't want to use these as a belay-locker or for top-rope anchors -- otherwise, though, you can't go wrong.

Why shouldn't these be used for belay lockers?
