Product Advantage
12KN (Kilonewton) Load Rating: Suitable for climbing, mountaineering, and rescue operations, ensuring reliable performance under stress.
Aircraft-Grade Aluminium: Lightweight yet strong, offering an excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
Weighs significantly less than steel carabiners, reducing fatigue during long climbs or multi-pitch routes.
Keylock or Wire Gate Design: Prevents snagging on ropes or gear, ensuring smooth clipping/unclipping.
Reliable Locking Mechanism: Some models feature auto-locking gates for added safety.
Anodized or treated aluminum resists rust and wear, making it ideal for harsh environments.
Suitable for rock climbing, belaying, rappelling, via ferrata, and industrial work.
Available in different shapes (D-shaped, oval, HMS) for various applications.
More affordable than premium steel carabiners while maintaining high safety standards.
Meets international safety standards for climbing equipment.

Product Applications
12KN aluminium climbing carabiners are essential tools for climbers and outdoor enthusiasts, offering a perfect balance of lightweight performance and high-strength reliability. Thanks to their aircraft-grade aluminium construction, these carabiners are built to withstand demanding loads while remaining easy to carry on long climbs.
Sport Climbing: Ideal for quickdraws and bolt clipping, where lightweight wire-gate carabiners reduce rope drag and allow for rapid gear placement.
Trad Climbing: Used for anchoring natural protection (nuts, cams) with oval or D-shaped carabiners that distribute load evenly.
Multi-Pitch & Big Wall Climbing: Locking carabiners secure belay stations and hauling systems, ensuring safety during prolonged exposure.
Belay Devices: HMS (pear-shaped) carabiners accommodate Munter hitches and tube-style belay devices, while screw-lock gates prevent accidental opening.
Rappelling: Auto-locking carabiners provide fail-safe connections to descenders, critical for preventing gate flutter during descent.
Via Ferrata: Locking carabiners attach lanyards to steel cables, withstanding constant abrasion and sudden shock loads.
Glacier Travel & Ice Climbing: Resistant to cold temperatures, these carabiners remain reliable in icy conditions for crevasse rescue and fixed-line setups.
cWet & Muddy Environments: Anodized coatings prevent corrosion from water and grit, making them durable for underground or canyon rigging.
Anchor Systems: Used in pulley setups and rope redirects where smooth-gate operation is crucial.
High-Stakes Rigging: Rescue teams rely on locking D-shaped carabiners for their high load capacity and secure connections in life-saving operations.
Work-at-Height & Rope Access: Certified for industrial use, these carabiners meet stringent safety standards for professional applications.
Top-Rope & Lead Climbing: Lightweight wire-gate carabiners are preferred for their smooth clipping action and durability under frequent use.
FAQ
Lightweight (40–60g): Reduces fatigue on long climbs.
High Strength (12KN+): Meets UIAA/CE safety standards.
Versatile Designs: Available in D-shape, oval, HMS, and locking variants for different needs.
Corrosion-Resistant: Anodized finishes ensure longevity in harsh conditions.
12KN (kilonewtons) is the minimum breaking strength (along the major axis) required for climbing carabiners.
1 kN ≈ 225 lbs, so 12KN = ~2,700 lbs of force before failure.
Meets UIAA/CE safety standards for climbing equipment.
Rinse with fresh water after saltwater/mud exposure.
Lubricate the gate with dry silicone spray (not oil).
Avoid grinding dirt (can wear down the aluminum).
