Edelrid HMS Bulletproof Carabiner

The stainless steel insert is designed to resist wear from constant rope friction or contact with steel anchors. While aluminum carabiners are lightweight, they can develop sharp grooves over time when used in high-friction environments; the steel insert significantly extends the lifespan of the carabiner.

A triple-action gate requires three distinct movements—slide, twist, and pull—to open. This mechanism provides a high level of security, making it nearly impossible for the gate to accidentally open during use, which is ideal for critical connections like belaying.

No, the H-profile is a functional design choice that optimizes the strength-to-weight ratio. By placing material only where it is needed for structural integrity, Edelrid reduces the overall weight of the carabiner without compromising its 25 kN major axis strength.

No, this carabiner features a keylock nose design. This smooth, snag-free interface ensures that the gate doesn't catch on your harness, slings, or rope when you are clipping or unclipping.

Yes, the pear shape (HMS) is specifically optimized for belaying with a Munter hitch. The wide basket allows the rope to move freely and prevents the hitch from jamming or locking up during use.
