Why We Like The Black Diamond GridLock Screwgate Carabiner
For a carabiner that lives in harmony with our belay device, we look to the Black Diamond GridLock Screwgate Carabiner. The innovative belay retainer keeps the carabiner in its proper orientation as we give our partner a catch, no more dangerous cross-loading. The unique pear shape keeps our system streamlined while still giving plenty of room and a smooth surface for a Munter hitch. From icy alpine sends to sandy desert routes, the screwgate remains operational, never freezing or gunking up.

Great Belay Option!
I bought a few of these and it has definitely helped make belaying easier. My wife is still new to the sport and it's one less thing she has to focus on while learning.

Great Carabiner and Cool Design
I love the tab that keeps the belay loop at the bottom to prevent cross loading.

Good deal
A basic design with ease of functionality makes this a fool proof item for its intended purpose. Nothing over complicated, light weight and strong. Why bother with anything else?

Good Carabiner
The locking at bottom is great for a gri gri so that it doesn’t move around. If I had to be nitpickey I wish that the screw lock had a different color on it so when the gate was fully locked it would be very obvious that it’s locked but that’s not the end of the world!
