The ISC KL202 Klettersteig Keylock karabiner is a high-strength, EN362-certified connector designed for climbing, rope access, and safety systems. Featuring a snag-free keylock nose and three gate locking options, this zinc-plated karabiner delivers a 45kN minimum breaking strength and a 26mm gate opening. Optional features include a captive pin for retrofit and an ANSI-compliant 3600lb version. With serial numbering and rugged construction, the KL202 is ideal for professional use in demanding environments.

ISC Offset D Karabiner - KH200

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.

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 ISC HMS Karabiner has been expertly forged to ensure superior build quality and incorporates a unique 'blind' nose design to drastically reduce snagging, enhancing overall performance. The barrels feature an accurate square-cut notch to limit debris accumulation. These karabiners offer a sleek, ergonomic design coupled with an outstanding high strength-to-weight ratio.

The Kong Ovalone DNA is a game-changing connector with a unique helical-shaped design, featuring a twisted carbon steel body and circular bar - perfect for handling offset loads with ease. It allows for 90° rotation of connected devices like descenders, rope clamps and fall arresters, ensuring optimal alignment for smoother and safer operation. Crafted with exceptional quality in Italy, the Ovalone DNA delivers unmatched performance and reliability for demanding tasks.

The Kong I-Ovalone DNA connector is a groundbreaking device featuring an NFC chip that puts your device’s history right at your fingertips! Say goodbye to costly readers; now you can access vital information using just a standard smartphone or PC. This innovative solution simplifies and accelerates your periodic inspections, eliminating the risk of errors that can occur during serial number transcription. Plus, it seamlessly integrates with any inspection software and boasts a patented design. Don’t need the chip? No problem! A standard version is also available.

The Petzl Djinn Steel bent gate karabiner combines a robust steel frame with an aluminium gate for long-lasting durability and effortless clipping. Its large gate opening, snag-free Keylock design, and wide rope-bearing surface make it ideal for heavy-use scenarios like indoor climbing and anchor building. Designed for strength, ease of use, and longevity.

The Beal Air-Smith is a steel karabiner that is ideal for rigging and a variety of other uses. It has one of the highest strength ratings and comes with two easy to use gate locking systems.

The Petzl Vulcan D is a high grade, D shaped karabiner for professional work. Designed for use in difficult environments, this karabiner is made from high quality steel and is ideal for setting multiple anchors.

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.

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 12mm Offset D is a locking steel karabiner that is ideal for use in commercial environments, such as work positioning or in outdoor adventure parks and education centres. An Offset D connector takes the spinal loading strength of a D-shaped back but extends the basket at one end to maximize gate opening and overall size without compromising ergonomics and weight. Cold forged from 12mm bar, the strengths achieved in testing exceed 45kN and it is first choice in applications requiring stronger connectors in their systems.

The DMM 12mm Klettersteig is a steel carabiner that offers high levels of strength whilst combining a large gate opening so its easy to clip on steel cables for use on a Via Ferrata. The Klettersteig shape takes the strength and volume increases of an Offset D and then extends them even further to give a high volume, super-strong connector. The Klettersteig’s wide gate opening makes it particularly suitable for clipping oversized items, or simply allows ease of use in more normal situations.

The DMM 12mm Boa is a great steel carabiner with a wide variety of applications. Whether using in a commercial work environment, outdoor adventure parks or outdoor education centres - this is a steel karabiner capable of many jobs. It has all the versatility of its alloy sibling, but has a rated strength of 40kN. It can be used for many applications where a large gate opening or high internal volume are required. The smooth rounded internal form is very useful when rotating the karabiner through attachment eyes, and the basket curves nicely to allow central hanging of loaded components.

The DMM 10mm Oval is a steel carabiner that's perfect for use with pulleys. The steel construction is lighter in weight than some of the alternatives, but it still delivers great levels of strength. Compact, strong and hard wearing, yet incredibly versatile in application. The oval shape centralises loaded connectors, slings, pulleys etc. minimising the unnerving jumping of equipment associated with D shaped connectors.
