OMEGA PACIFIC STANDARD D ALUMINUM KEYLOCK SCREW-LOK NFPA (CARABINER)
“New Standard in Performance Hardware”
Small and light, this UL-Classified carabiner is the proper choice for all light-duty applications and for personal use. D’s are the backbone of most climbers’ racks and to some, shaving ounces is the most important thing. With that in mind, we’ve trimmed the weight of our Screw-Lok Standard D by a full 9%, without sacrificing an iota of major-axis strength! By utilizing a precise hot forging process, we are able to achieve the perfect compromise between strength and weight. Although hot forging is a more costly and time consuming process when compared to cold forging, the end results are much more favorable. Manufacturing in this manner allows us to remove weight where it is not needed and add material along the spine to boost strength and durability.
Improvements:
- 9% weight reduction, without sacrificing strength
- Upgraded keylock nose to prevent unwanted snags/hang-ups
- 31% larger gate opening
- Improved bend radius in the basket along the spine of the carabiner
- I beam construction better protects markings
- Now offered in your choice of Straightgate, Screw-Lok, Quik-Lok, or 3-Stage Quik-Lok
Each carabiner is individually proof loaded and meticulously hand-inspected before leaving our ISO 9001 factory.
