Detailed Description
A clean, no-frills straight-gate carabiner built for general use across sport and everyday climbing.
The K1S's forged aluminium body keeps it light without giving up the strength needed for repeated falls and clips, and its balanced geometry distributes load efficiently whether it's on the gear end of a quickdraw or clipped into a sling. The straight gate gives more controlled clipping than a bent gate, with less risk of accidental rope unclipping during awkward placements, while compact proportions keep it from adding bulk across a full rack.
Features
