Smooth lines and exceptional strength--this versatile locking carabiner has an asymmetric shape for an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio.

Low-profile, metallic locking sleeve quickly snaps into locked position

Patented Keylock gate uses a key-shaped nose on carabiner and slot-shaped gate to create a strong, snag-free closure

Large gate opening makes it easier to clip in

Individually tested--meets UIAA standards

Another great product from Petzl. Same bomber strong body as the Am'D Ball Lock with a different gate. The new gate needs to be pulled up before it can be turned for and extra bit of safety. While I like this biner I will stick with the Ball Lock because I can use it one handed much easier than the Tri-Act. Probably best as a belay biner.

One of the best biners we use professional. Good to handle and very strong. The only negative point of all the Petzl biners is the price.
