The DMM 12mm Klettersteig is a steel carabiner that offers high levels of strength whilst combining a large gate opening so its easy to clip on steel cables for use on a Via Ferrata. The Klettersteig shape takes the strength and volume increases of an Offset D and then extends them even further to give a high volume, super-strong connector. The Klettersteig’s wide gate opening makes it particularly suitable for clipping oversized items, or simply allows ease of use in more normal situations.

The DMM Phantom is their ultimate trad and alpine screwgate Karabiner, and when you hold those 42 grams you will understand why! They claim they could have made it even lighter, but didn't want to compromise the handling or strength. As you can see from the specification below the strength is still impressive and the gate opening reasonable for a small D shaped karabiner.

The Zodiac 12mm Keylock is DMM's flagship rigging karabiner. It's extremely strong and therefore suited to heavy use situations like heavy duty rigging, rescue loads and group instruction, where toughness and strength are key. The clean nose gate uses DMM's patented Taperlock design and their toughest barrel to give very strong gate open and side face strengths.

The Edelrid Pure Screw is a lightweight, robust screwgate karabiner designed for reliable all-round use in climbing, mountaineering, and rope access. Its offset D-shape and keylock nose ensure smooth clipping and unclipping without snagging, while the large rope contact area reduces wear on both rope and hardware. With a strong H-profile construction and high open-gate strength, this compact karabiner delivers safety, versatility, and durability in one streamlined design.

The Petzl Sm'D represents a D-shaped carabiner with a locking mechanism, known for its lightweight and compact design. It finds utility across various scenarios, offering ease of handling even with gloves, and comes in two different locking system variations.

The DMM Vault ensures safe, strong and secure racking for ice screws and tools.
