The Am'D lightweight asymmetric carabiner is made of aluminum. It has a D shape particularly suited for connection to diverse equipment such as descenders or positioning lanyards.

Description

  • D shape is particularly suited for connection to equipment such as descenders or positioning lanyards
  • Aluminum carabiner whose light weight reduces the weight of equipment the worker at height needs to carry
  • May be used with a CAPTIV positioning bar to favor loading of the carabiner along the major axis, to limit the risk of it flipping and to keep it integrated with the device
  • Easier handling:
    - fluid interior design limits the risk of having a catch point and facilitates rotation of the carabiner
    - Keylock system to avoid any involuntary snagging of the carabiner
  • H cross-section:
    - ensures an improved strength-to-weight ratio
    - protects markings from abrasion
  • Available in three different locking systems:
    - TRIACT-LOCK: automatic locking with triple-action gate opening
    - BALL-LOCK: automatic locking with triple-action gate opening, with lock indicator
    - SCREW-LOCK: the manual screw-lock with red band provides a visual warning when the carabiner is unlocked
  • Also available in black (TRIACT-LOCK and SCREW-LOCK)

Specifications

  • Material(s): aluminum
  • Certification(s): CE EN 362, EAC, NFPA 1983 Technical Use
