SMC KINETIC Carabiner

Built from the ground up, this carabiner gives you the best of the best carabiner functionality. Featuring a key-lock nose and a .98-inch gate opening, the Kinetic is an ideal connector for all climbing disciplines or work rescue. The Screw-Lock gate design was engineered to engage the locking sleeves on the gate, not on the frame, which helps prevent jamming or vibrating loose and allows the operator to operate while under load if necessary. The Twist Lock gate is designed to be easily opened with one hand, yet the recessed knurls and firm spring make it less likely that gear will cause gate to inadvertently open. The Screw-Lock weighs in at 2.8 oz., and the Twist-Lock in at 3.2 oz. So you’ll never have to sacrifice strength for weight at heights all day.
