Kong Oval Aluminum Carabiner

The oval shape is specifically designed to keep pulleys and other equipment centered, preventing them from shifting during use. It is the ideal choice for rigging systems where you need to maintain a symmetrical load.

The Twist Lock requires two distinct movements—a twist and a pull—to open the gate. This two-step process significantly reduces the risk of the carabiner accidentally opening while in use.

Yes, this carabiner is certified to NFPA 1983:2017 standards, which confirms it meets the rigorous performance requirements for life safety and rescue applications.

The Keylock nose eliminates the traditional 'hook' found on many carabiners, which prevents the gate from snagging on ropes, webbing, or gear loops. It makes clipping and unclipping much smoother and more efficient.

With a major axis strength of 26kN, it is built to handle significant loads. Each unit is also individually tested before leaving the factory in Italy to ensure it meets its rated strength specifications.
