GREAT SCREW LOCK STEEL CARABINER!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
These are perfect for Top Roping. I use them on the bolt/anchor side AND on the rope side. A little overkill...PERHAPS...but these will never be the weak link of your anchor set-up. These carabiners are heavy! I do not intend to carry them around on my harness, so the weight really doesn't matter for my intended application. The rounded surface on these carabiners allows the rope to slide easily through them for TRing, and the steel material will NEVER wear grooves like aluminum carabiners. Thanks to the Gear Head for recommending these!

40 Kila New Tents!!

Bomber beener, basically bulletproof. The screw lock version is functionally indestructible. It's heavy, but that's only because it's got a lot of gravity in it. When you need more this has it. More everything, More Gravity, more strength. more steel. More steel than other aluminum carabiners anyway. I choose steel when I really, really, really want to live later.
