The DMM 30kN Boa HMS Keylock is the heavier duty version of the 25kN Boa, it is hot forged from 14mm bar which gives it the 30kN major axis rescue that's required for rescue loads. Its ergonomics ensure that it is still easily operated whilst wearing gloves and the curved basket copes with even the busiest rigging set ups, allowing devices to settle comfortably.
The DMM Ceros has been designed to help minimise the risk of cross-loading with its internal wire-gate that will keep the karabiner captive on the belay loop. The wire gate opens onto the belay loop in a single movement, plus the intuitive design ensures it is easy to use and rack - even with one hand. The horn on the spine of the karabiner helps prevent assisted braking devices from jumping onto the spine.
After observing how sport climbers were modifying their belay karabiners with rubber bungs to prevent cross-loading when using the Petzl Grigri and Trango Cinch, DMM decided it was time to come up with a cleaner, simple, solution. The Rhino's horn prevents such devices from rotating off the top bar and on to the spine reducing the risk of cross loading, it also works well with selected DMM pulleys.
The DMM Shadow HMS is a large, but lightweight HMS karabiner with a short gate to maximise gate opening. The deep and wide top basket can take three clove hitches (<9.5mm rope).
The Mammut Smart HMS 2.0 Screwgate Carabiner offers the same double safety and easy handling as the older version. The screw locking can be operated only when the safety gate is open. Accidental opening is excluded, as well as unintentional twisting of the carabiner in the belay loop of the climbing harness. This prevents dangerous lateral loading. Mammut recommends use of the Smart HMS 2.0 carabiner for the Smart 2.0 belay device.
The OCUN Condor HMS Twist is a large karabiner that responds to the new trends of safety. Equipped with an independent internal wire gate that prevents it from rotating and guards against unwanted release from a belay loop, this karabiner ensures safe belaying and rappelling. The internal gate locks in the right direction and therefore prevents upward release. This means that the belayer can focus their full attention on the climber. The Condor brings a new level of safety into belaying.
The Petzl Attache is a lightweight and compact, pear-shaped karabiner with as screw gate opening. It has multiple uses for belaying, such as connecting a belay system to a harness and belaying with a Munter hitch. It has a H-cross section to reduce weight, as well as the keylock system to avoid the karabiner snagging during manoeuvres.
The Petzl William is a large carabiner can be useful in many places. This William's shape and size means it's useful for belaying and abseiling with an Italian hitch with both single or double ropes, anchoring multiple ropes and slings and keeping the belay station organized.
