Black Diamond HotForge Bent Gate Carabiner

The Black Diamond HotForge Bent Gate Carabiner is a modern reimagining of the classic keylock carabiner, designed for the rope-end of quickdraws. Its hot-forged construction reduces weight while reinforcing high-stress areas, creating a durable yet lightweight carabiner. The bent gate design ensures smooth clipping, and the deeper basket secures rope attachment. A larger rope-bearing surface enhances durability for both the carabiner and your climbing rope. The flat hinge-end basket keeps quickdraw webbing in place, while flats on the gate reduce the risk of accidental opening. Black Diamond's optimized nose geometry allows for efficient clipping and unclipping from bolts, ensuring a seamless climbing experience.
