The DMM Belay Master is a robust, reliable belay karabiner designed with safety as the top priority. Featuring an innovative nylon crossgate lock, it can only be closed once the screwgate is fully tightened, eliminating the risk of accidental unlocking. This clever mechanism also ensures correct orientation and prevents dangerous cross-loading, making it especially suitable for beginner climbers and instructors. Built with a full-section top bar, the Belay Master offers smooth rope handling, reduces wear on ropes and belay devices, and maintains strength under load. Its design resists flipping and rotation, keeping the karabiner aligned in the optimal position even during dynamic movements. Compatible with both tube-style and assisted-braking belay devices, it’s a small but vital piece of kit that delivers peace of mind for climbers of all levels. Whether you’re learning to belay indoors or managing complex belays outdoors, the Belay Master combines durability, simplicity, and foolproof safety in one trusted package.
