DMM Aero Keylock Bent Gate Carabiner
The classic Aero has now been updated to include a keylock nose to make clipping and unclipping even easier. A brilliant sports climbing biner that is beefy enough to survive multiple dogging sessions and clips beautifully. It also makes a great racking biner.
This is the bent gate version that is designed for the rope end of the quickdraw. It uses a deep gate that make clipping very easy - even when you are pumped stupid miles above the last gear.
The Aero is a high quality, hot-forged solid gate carabiner with a strong 9Kn gate open strength for extra safety. It features a shrouded nose to protect the gate from accidentally opening and a rope groove to help direct any loads against the spine.
The carabiner is a good size for all-round use and has a nice wide 22mm gate opening, so that even clipping thick webbing is easy.
We have also taken great care to curve the body into the gate so that there is minimal chance of anything hanging up at the gate/body intersection. This makes the chance of the carabiner being loaded away from the spine much smaller and thus helps create a safer carabiner.
The Aero is completely anodised to help combat corrosion and prolong life in hot, damp or salty enviroments.
A great value carabiner that performs way beyond its pricepoint.
