William Screw-Lock

Yes, its asymmetrical pear shape is specifically designed to accommodate a Munter hitch, allowing the rope to run smoothly and preventing it from binding during belaying or rappelling.

Absolutely. The carabiner features an ergonomic design and a textured locking sleeve that provides enough grip and clearance to operate the gate comfortably, even when you are wearing thick belay or winter gloves.

The Keylock nose eliminates the traditional hook found on many carabiners, which prevents the gate from snagging on your harness gear loops, rope, or slings when you are clipping or unclipping.

The William is a large-capacity connector, meaning it is bulkier and heavier than standard quickdraw carabiners. It is best used as a master point carabiner at belay stations or for complex rigging, rather than for clipping bolts on a sport route.

Yes, the William is certified to CE EN 362, EAC, and NFPA 1983 standards, ensuring it meets the rigorous strength and safety requirements for professional and recreational climbing use.

The Screw-lock requires manual twisting to open and close, offering simplicity and reliability. The Ball-lock and Triact-lock are automatic locking systems that provide added security by locking automatically when the gate closes, which is ideal for high-frequency use or environments where you cannot risk forgetting to lock the gate.
