Snapgate Karabiners

The OCUN Kestrel is a fully rated, ultralight wire gate karabiner weighing just 25g, making it ideal for trad and alpine climbing where minimal weight is critical. Its wire gate prevents gate flutter and freezing, while its optimized design delivers 23 kN of major axis strength in a compact profile. Perfect for racking, slings, or emergency use, the Kestrel is certified to UIAA and EN standards and comes in colours matching cam sizes for seamless gear organization.

The DMM Spectre is an all-round carabiner for versatility and can be used across trad, sport, or winter climbing. They are full sized for ease of handling, while I-Beam construction and wire gates keep weight low. If you want one type of carabiner to cover all your climbing needs, you need an all-rounder. Wire gates are the lightest gate type available, and resist freezing shut in cold conditions. They are crucial in reducing the weight of your rack, and are ideal for trad, winter, and alpine climbing.
