Kong Ovalone DNA Carabiner

The twisted body is engineered to handle off-axis loads by allowing attached devices, like descenders or blockers, to rotate 90 degrees. This ensures your gear sits in its optimal operating position rather than binding or twisting against the carabiner.

The Auto Block version uses a 3-movement locking mechanism, which requires three distinct actions to open, offering higher security against accidental opening. The Twist Lock version uses a 2-movement mechanism, making it faster and easier to operate with one hand.

Yes, it is certified to EN 362/B and EN 12275/B standards. With a main axis load rating of 24kN, it is built to handle the significant forces encountered in professional climbing and rescue environments.

Absolutely. The Keylock design eliminates the hook found on standard carabiners, which prevents the nose from snagging on ropes, slings, or your harness gear loops when you are clipping or unclipping.

The carabiner weighs 80 grams. It is a robust, full-sized connector designed for strength and specific mechanical positioning rather than ultralight applications.
