The Maillon Rapide Delta is a triangular shaped connector with a hand or spanner tightening screw thread for use in mountaineering, caving, rescue and access situations. Comes in steel with a zinc galvanised finish and stainless steel options from 4mm through to 12mm diameters.

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 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 DMM 10mm Oval karabiner is a strong, compact steel connector designed for pulley systems, rope access, and fall arrest setups. Its oval shape ensures centralised loading, smooth pulley operation, and symmetrical performance, making it versatile and efficient in complex rigging systems. Available with Screwgate, Kwiklock, or Locksafe locking options, it combines strength, security, and ease of use. Cold-forged, heat-treated, and zinc plated, the 10mm Oval has been built to withstand demanding use while providing reliability and confidence in the field.

The Oxan is Petzl's high quality steel oval karabiner with a keylock gate closure, this is the steel karabiner of choice for demanding conditions. Petzl’s Keylock means less snagging, while the red indicator on the screw lock provides a visual warning if the gate is not locked.

Reword this in a better way: The ISC Oval Keylock (KL311) combines the specifications of an Oval with that of a ‘D’ shape Karabiner. True Ovals are not capable of achieving high breaking loads, as their symmetrical shape shares the load between the spine and the gate of the Karabiner. The weakest part of any Karabiner is the gate and so wherever possible, designers will try to bias the load toward the spine of the Karabiner. This is why ‘D’ shape Karabiners (typically) give the highest breaking loads.

The Beal O'Smith is a steel symmetrical oval karabiner that's ideal for using and working with pulleys. The oval shape is perfect for using with pulleys as it ensures that the pulley sits perfectly square and is equalised for balance. Each carabiner has an individual number that guarantees its traceability.
