Petzl Attache 3D Screw-Lock Carabiner

Item #PTZ0242 | 33 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Super

By Ranked #14 - Carabiners, Quickdraws, and Belay Devices June 14, 2011

I love the 3d as a mother biner on multipitch anchors. I find that the smooth/rounded bar stock on the original attache feeds better when belaying a second directly off the anchor. The 3d is a bit shifty and you have to be sure to lock the screwgate with authority, but for the awesome weight to size ratio, I'm more than willing to compromise.

Side note - I wouldn't recommend top roping off this carabiner as it will likely wear the alloy down more quickly than a heavier carabiner.
