The Maillon Rapide Delta is a triangular shaped connector with a hand or spanner tightening screw thread for use in mountaineering, caving, rescue and access situations. Comes in steel with a zinc galvanised finish and stainless steel options from 4mm through to 12mm diameters.

The Maillon Rapide Long Opening is a long oval shaped Maillon Rapide, the gate being longer than the standard. Available in galvanised or stainless steel, and in a number of different sizes (see drop down menu). These are ideal for rigging ropes in any situation where they will not be in view during use as they are much less likely than a karabiner to open accidentally. The downside is that they are slightly slower to use than a screw gate karabiner.

The Maillon Rapide Pear are ideal for rigging ropes in any situation where they will not be in view during use as they are much less likely than a karabiner to open accidentally. The downside is that they are slightly slower to use than a screw gate karabiner. The pear shape gives the rope room to run over the wider end. Available in galvanised or stainless steel, and in a number of different sizes (see drop down menu).

The Semi circular or half moon Maillon Rapide is ideal for securing caving harnesses, it is commonly used for the junction of 2 connecting points on a harness. Screw links are a lot more secure than karabiners so are essential if there's a possibility that the connector may be cross-loaded.

The DMM 10mm Oval is a steel carabiner that's perfect for use with pulleys. The steel construction is lighter in weight than some of the alternatives, but it still delivers great levels of strength. Compact, strong and hard wearing, yet incredibly versatile in application. The oval shape centralises loaded connectors, slings, pulleys etc. minimising the unnerving jumping of equipment associated with D shaped connectors.

The Oxan is Petzl's high quality steel oval karabiner with a keylock gate closure, this is the steel karabiner of choice for demanding conditions. Petzl’s Keylock means less snagging, while the red indicator on the screw lock provides a visual warning if the gate is not locked.
