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 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 karabiner is a strong, secure connector designed for reliable rigging and load-bearing applications. Its screw-link design offers greater safety than traditional karabiners, while the pear shape provides smoother rope handling and reduced friction. Available in galvanised steel, stainless steel, or alloy, and in a wide range of sizes, it’s a versatile choice for both recreational and professional use. With PPE-certified versions available, the Maillon Rapide Pear is trusted for everything from ropework to fall protection.

The Maillon Rapide Standard is a strong, oval-shaped quick link connector designed for dependable use in rigging, anchoring, and safety systems. Built on the principle of a chain link with a manual screw nut, it offers exceptional security and resistance to accidental opening. Available in galvanised steel, stainless steel, or alloy, it conforms to EN 362 and EN 12275 standards. With PPE-certified options available, the Maillon Rapide Standard is a versatile and trusted choice for both recreational and professional use.

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 Beal Flat Link has been designed to go with the Hold Up harness and is a fully rated karabiner, making it ideal for full body harnesses. The flat surfaces ensure an even load distribution on webbing.

When you need a reliable connection but need to be able to affect an immediate release this is the karabiner for you. Ideal for helicopter and across river rescues. Double button locking with multiple safety mechanism and a breaking strength of 40kN. Paragliders are able to separate the pilot from his/her glider when using a dirigible rescue system.
