Snapgate Karabiners

The OCUN Kestrel is an ultralight micro-karabiner that's suitable for use on multi-pitch and trad routes. Despite its low weight, the Kestrel has high strength and its wire gate helps to eliminate flutter, whilst reducing the chances of snow or ice accumulating and causing the gate to freeze in winter conditions.

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.
