Features a strong 25-kN strength rating with wide rope-bearing surface to spread the load

Simple screwgate lock with an easy-to-twist knurled finish, no exposed threads to cross

Functional shape is easy to hold; deep basket accepts loads of slings and runners

Overall a great piece. I have been using mine for setting up my achors while trad leading. The nice low weight for a locking biner makes putting a few of these on your rack a no brainer. I really like the key lock gate system which I think makes it a sure buy over its $7.50 lesser sibling.

Would give it four stars but I think it would have to be in the <50g range for weight to receive that rating.

Great Carabiner
This carabiner is way awesome. I love the fact that I don't get any webbing or ropes because of the design. They're a great price, hard to beat.
