Edelrid HMS Bulletproof Belay FG Carabiner

The steel insert is located at the point where the rope or bolt hanger makes the most contact. It significantly reduces friction-based wear, which helps the carabiner last much longer than a standard all-aluminum model.

The spring bar keeps the carabiner properly oriented in your harness's tie-in loop. This prevents the carabiner from rotating, which effectively eliminates the risk of dangerous cross-loading during a belay.

Yes, the slider mechanism is designed for intuitive, one-handed operation. You simply press down on the slider to open the gate, making it quick and efficient to use while managing a rope.

The non-anodized finish is a sustainable choice that reduces the chemical waste typically associated with the anodizing process. It gives the carabiner a raw, metallic look while maintaining full structural integrity.

The HMS shape is versatile and compatible with most standard belay devices, such as tube-style devices or assisted-braking devices. Its 27 mm gate opening provides plenty of room for smooth rope handling.
