The DMM Ultra O is a karabiner with symmetrical rope baskets, this makes it ideal for assisted breaking devices, pulleys, swivels and shackles. Oval karabiners allow pulleys to sit in an equalised position, the symmetrical shape also lessens the chance of shifting under load and potentially dislodging a marginal gear placement. The Ultra O is the perfect climbing aid!

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.
