AXIS HMS SG CARABINER

A large HMS carabiner with wide opening and screwgate, made from hot-forged light alloy, designed for use in rigging systems, setting up belays and for abseiling.

Incredibly light and strong, the Axis Screwgate uses an accentuated double T profile (essentially an I beam profile) for maximum strength to weight ratio, while the carabiner's shape ensures correct orientation of ropes.

Main features:

• shape guarantees correct axial loading relative to rope and other devices;
• large size and ample width to allow use of Munter hitch knot, the securing of more than one rope, slings or devices and rope manoeuvres in general;
• accentuated double-T profile, for an excellent weight/load ratio;
• lightened and shaped form for improved ease of holding;
• catch-free closure to avoid accidental tangling during use.
