The Kong X Large Carbon Steel is a carbon steel carabiner with Twist Lock sleeve. The X-Large is designed to offer a wide gate opening and a high tensile strength. The particular D shape prevents the rotation of the carabiner and allows to distribute the load along the major axis.

The ISC Small Steel Ring is a 27mm ring that can be used on your harness bridge. It has a minimum breaking strength of 25kN.

The Edelrid HMS Strike Screw FG is a compact HMS carabiner with an integrated spring bar to prevent it from twisting. The ideal belay carabiner with a shape designed to work with the Edelrid Mega Jul, Giga Jul and Jul 2.

The DMM Shadow Straight Gate is a lighter-weight, yet still large enough carabiner that it can be used as a crossover for both sport and trad quickdraws. Where the Shadow would rest on a bolt, the metal has been reinforced to provide durability, and a clean nose reduces snagging when clipping and stripping routes. The gate has chamfered sides to make gripping it with the thumb easier, and the size makes for easier clipping in comparison to the much smaller lightweight carabiners.

The Edelrid Bulletproof Straight karabiner is the answer to all your wearing kit issues. The hybrid system with a steel insert reduces burrs, wear and sharp edges developing on the apex of the carabiner whilst the aluminium body keeps the weight down. Perfect for anybody out clipping chains regularly or the super safety conscious.

The Edelrid HMS Bulletproof Screw is lighter than a full steel karabiner, this screwgate blends weight and durability by simply adding a still insert around the apex, improving resistance to wear. Whilst the basket isn't the biggest around, this HMS is great for its intended purposes- belaying or for setting up a top rope, or clipping into bolt hangars, as there are few carabiners as durable for the weight, which is also aided by the H-profile construction.

The Petzl Captiv positioning bar promotes loading of the carabiner on the major axis, limits the risk of rotation and keeps it integrated with the device or lanyard. Captiv is compatible with OK, Am’D, William, Oxan, Bm'D carabiners and the Rollclip A pulley carabiner.

Thanks to its spacious aperture and the Keylock system, linking the connector becomes a simple task. When paired with the Captivo positioning bar, the Vertigo Twist-Lock can enhance proper carabiner loading along the major axis, minimising rotation risks and maintaining integration with the device.

The Petzl Ring connection ring can be used to create multiple anchors or be installed directly onto the Sequoia and Sequoia SRT harnesses' attachment bridges to improve the arborist's lateral mobility.

The Edelrid HMS Strike Slider FG is a fantastic belay karabiner that provides solutions to the problems that climbers have with their belaying krabs. The use of i-beam or H-profile construction creates a lightweight HMS or Pear shaped biner which is designed to work perfectly with the assisted breaking Edelrid Jul, Mega Jul and Micro Jul belay devices but will work equally well with any other belay device.

The Petzl Ring Open is a versatile connection point due to its gated opening system. This allows a range of equipment with sewn terminations or closed fixed attachment points to be installed. The round shape of the Ring allows optimal loading, making it a multi-directional peice of equipment for most system set-ups.

Maillon Rapide quick link connectors have a number of uses in caving, climbing and industrial access. Some are PPE rated and they are available in a number of different shapes to accommodate different loading stresses. Generally they are much stronger than karabiners of similar bar dimensions, but not as quick to operate.

The DMM Belay Master Clip can be used in conjunction with many DMM karabiners (that can be bought in store), this device locks in place the karabiner, to prevent cross loading. It holds the karabiner and belay device in the correct alignment with the harness. This clip can only be locked if the screwgate has been properly closed, being another safety advantage. This small item will aid to make sure you never do your belay wrong!

Don't deal with a cross loaded belay karabiner again! The Black Diamond GridLock Screwgate is specifically designed for belaying, the Gridlock isolates the belay loop of a harness behind the uniquely shaped internal gate, thus keeping the karabiner in the correct orientation. The Gridlock is simple, easy to use and effective.

Maillon Rapides have a working load limit that is a fifth of the breaking load of the maillon (as stated by the manufacturer) and will become damaged and distorted if they are used above this load limit. Some are certified as PPE (to protect falls from height) and some are not. If you are unsure of which is which, either ask us, or have a look at your maillon which will be marked with "PPE" if it is and "CE" if it is not. CE maillons conform to Maillon Rapide's standards but are not certified as PPE.
