I currently have 12 Photon Wire Bent Gate carabiners on the rope end of my quickdraws and they are noticeably lighter than the hotwires I replaced while still being easy to clip. It also has a one of the largest gate openings at 28mm for the straight gate and 29mm for the bent gate. Review The Camp Photon carabiner is amazingly light weighing in at 29 grams.

The Camp Photon wire gate carabiner is the lightest full size carabiner in the world and has an extremely large gate opening for easy clipping. It's foolproof because of that folding catch and thus provides visual peace-of-mind for me and… Full review The "pivoting catch" assures me that my 'biner is locked properly and will not cross load whether belaying or rappelling. I've used it now for a few weeks and plan to get a second one soon (backup in case of loss or theft). Bought the Master 2 exclusively for my tube-type belay device and love it.

it's perfect for the job (belaying/rappelling carabiner). There could potentially be a scenario where a rope or rock can do this as well, but you'd have to pretty much purposefully place it in a situation… Full reviewĮxcellent product, vey well designed and made. I can easily open them with one hand by putting the spine in my palm, and using my middle finger to push the slider down and open the gate. I bought four of these mainly to use for anchoring and having secure carabiners for whatever I need them for. It's an easy to use and lightweight autolocker, perfect for a more secure alpine sling or to use in anchoring. However, the green paint wears off from the rope almost immediately. It attaches to the harness more easily than the other gatelock style carabiners I've tried. This is a nice design for preventing your carabiner from rotating while belaying. The paint on the carabiner wears off almost immediately, and grooves from the rope appear faster than expected. The spin lock is OK but doesn't turn as smoothly as others. When purchasing a carabiner, you can rely on high-quality and safe products from renowned manufacturers.Does well at keeping the carabiner from rotation while belaying. This is important because you don’t want a rock or the friction of your rope to open your carabiner. However, you should always make sure the closure is locked firmly and securely. These carabiners are available as screwgate carabiners or with automatic locking systems. As for locking carabiners, they're made for situations that require 100% safety, such as when belaying yourself or your partner. Now, you may be asking yourself: what type of locking system is ideal? A snapgate carabiner is used when you need to move quickly, for example when you’re creating an intermediate belay point. Most importantly, it shouldn’t be able to open on its own. The perfect carabiner is lightweight, tough and easy to use. Luckily, it’s not very difficult to find your way through the world of carabiners. In the last few years, climbing has become extremely popular and the range of high-quality carabiners has grown exponentially. Which carabiner do you need to conquer mountains? However, due to their lower load capacity, they’re not suitable for climbing. These can be used to attach all of your equipment to your climbing harness.

In addition to carabiners for climbing, there are also so-called gear carabiners on the market. Almost all modern carabiners are made of aluminium because of the material's light weight. Carabiners should be part of every climber and mountaineer’s equipment because one’s life can sometimes literally depend on it.
