Rapid-action manual locking version of the Attache Lock carabiner. Particularly intended for attachment to the belay and belaying directly from the anchor-point. The pear-shaped design and round cross-section of the Attache also gives excellent ease of use for belaying with a Munter hitch. A compact carabiner, it is easily operated with one hand and its light weight makes it the ideal companion for mountaineering as well as rock-climbing.
