Mad Rock Ultralight Wire Gate Carabiner

Used it to secure gear to packs and other objects while traveling. Never failed and couldn’t even tell they were there. Held through airports, boats, hiking, and horseback without any hiccups.

Light, cheap, does the job.

I bought two of the Mad Rock Ultralight Wire Gate Carabiner to upgrade the carabiners on my hammock from the heavy steel ones it came with. I'm sure the two of them feel like they aren't living up to their full potential of summiting craggy peaks or saving lives when you miss that tiny hold, but they shaved a bunch of weight off my hammock and are doing a great job for what I ask of them; keeping me relaxing comfortably.

This is a great little carabiner that comes in at a perfect weight and size for placing anchors on your alpine routes or on multi pitch days. It's also perfect for the crag for a day of sport climbing. I bought more of these to replace BDs.

I pair them with the Petzl Ange L Lite carabiner on dyneem runners for a great set of light alpine draws.

What else do you need. Quality looks good and Ive never had any issues in the past with these.

I actually got this as order padding, the cost of shipping was the same as this carabinier, and this way I got free 2 day on my order! Overall I love this little guy. It feels very sturdy and well built and I wouldn't have any questions about using it on my climbing rack for quick draws but honestly all I've really used it for so far is clipping my shoes or sandals together when I carry them on my harness and it excells at that task!

Anyways, this carabiner is pretty sweet. As small as a post-it note (almost) yet almost as strong as regular carabiner. I just use mine for my chalk bag, but I would feel comfortable hanging off these as well.

These are great. They're my go-to for making alpine draws, or just for clipping gear to my harness. I always have a few of these on my rack.

These are my favorite biners for trad for a few reasons. This is almost the lightest carabiner for its cost. In fact the only biner that is lighter than it, the trango phase, compromises on the gate size. When I am clipping I prefer to have a larger gate. Which brings me to how crazy I am about the gates. These biners clip with ease. The gate swallows rope well and never catches or snags while I use it. Given the cost, it is not very difficult to replace these when a biner needs to get left or replaced. I am just mad over these madrocks!

Great 'biners but I wish they came in more colors like BD Neutrinos. I would definitely use these on all my pieces. Very light, highly recommend.

I've been using this to build anchors for a little over a year, and no problems yet. Great price for its weight. The action of the wire gate is very smooth. They also look pretty swell.

Impressed with how light it is. My boyfriend couldn't believe I got this light of a biner for the price

These little guys are great. I use two for hanging my hammock with and they work perfectly. Much lighter then the "marine" grade biners that came with the hammock, and they are super cheap for what you get. Will definitely buy more next time I need a carabiner.

When they say light they mean light and at 31g you will be hard pressed to find anything else like this for the price. Only reason I am giving it 4/5 is the gate can get hung up when you clean them from the bolt hangers but that is a problem with all wire carabiners. Like I said you can?t go wrong with this carabiner for the price it is awesome and if you lose it not really a big loss of money.

Just got ten Mad Rock quickdraws with these carabiners and used them for two weeks of new routing in Belize. Despite the heat, humidity and mud, they worked like a charm! Highly recommended!

It's a comfortable wire gate binner. I like its smooth action and overall feeling.



The only flaw has been found after two seasons of intensive use is that it wears off too fast. Ropes groove MadRock Ultralight much faster then BD Oz or Metolius Inferno. Thus probably it's not as bargain as it seems at the first glance.
