The Tibloc has an automatic system that presses the karabiner against the rope to start the braking action. To work well, the original Tibloc should be used with a round bar karabiner. Whilst the new version with the plastic easy release mechanism will work with most karabiners we recommend the Petzl Attache.

It's been built with hot forged side plates and a stainless steel cam, making the product lighter and providing a better internal radius for smooth operation across a broader range of karabiners.
