Kong Guide Bent Gate

Bent gate carabiners are specifically designed for the rope-end of a quickdraw. The curve makes it significantly easier and faster to clip your rope, which is essential when you are pumped or in a difficult position.

The D-shape is the gold standard for strength-to-weight ratio. It forces the load onto the spine, which is the strongest part of the carabiner, making it ideal for climbing applications where reliability is paramount.

Yes. By increasing the surface area where the rope makes contact, the carabiner reduces friction and prevents sharp edges from wearing down your rope sheath prematurely.

Absolutely. Because each unit is individually tested during production in Italy, you can trust the structural integrity of the frame for demanding vertical environments like lead climbing.

This model is designed primarily for quickdraws and clipping. For belaying or rappelling, you should use a locking carabiner—typically a pear-shaped HMS model—to ensure the device stays securely attached to your harness.
