Good for everything but belaying

By Backcountry.com Employee July 18, 2005

This ‘biner is great for just about everything where you need a locker, except belaying. Though it is made of round bar stock, the D-shape does not lend it self to belaying very well. They are also a little on the heavy side. For this reason, I like other lockers for long trad climbs or alpine routes.
