Strong, solid and lightweight. Our robust sport and alpine climbing biner with a straight gate, the Ortles Straight Carabiner promotes good handling and easy clipping. Its ergonomically engineered gate design features a dedicated easy clipping grip zone for your thumb and tapered keylock nose that prevents snagging and a large, solid opening for optimum handling when clipping or stripping. The shape-optimized aluminium construction ensures the best possible use of material - saving both weight and resources whilst maintaining high protection standards, and the broad inner rope bearing surface delivers greater durability.
