Hot forge screwgate

I use these for both rope rescue and for climbing. I do a lot of work involving multiple ropes and tools in the air and having a smaller locker that is still rated both declutters and maintains the confidence I need in my equipment. In climbing it is phenomenal for my multi pitch scenarios again reducing clutter in bolt holes as well as being light enough that it’s not a burden to climb with. These are some of my favorite small screw locks I own. And have been using this lineup since 2017!

Great Carabiner!

Meets my needs and then some and looks good while doing it!

Prepping for a red rock

Prepping for a red rock canyon trip. Have a had a few days hiking with the crag 40 in preparation and it has really worked well. Easily holds all my gear + 70m rope with room to spare for snacks. Looking forward to running it up multi-pitches soon!

Great Small Lockers

Wonderful lockers for the wall. Have been used many times and they remain strong. Screws seem to get a little less smooth as time goes along, but they work great, especially for tethering.

Great Light Weight Locker

Solid locker carabiner that I use for multiple functions climbing. Lately using it in my top rope solo setup. Suggest that the locking function has a red band (or other bright color) to show if it is not locked.

Black Diamond is always a good choice

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Having climbed for a few decades and then stepped away for a while and now getting back into it, the plethora of choices out there was a shock. One thing that is still the same as always is the quality and consistency of their products. Picked these up for setting up TR and building anchors and they have performed as expected.

Lightweight, strong, all around a great useful pick.

Lightweight and solid!

I'm definitely a fan of these screwgates. They are very lightweight, the screwgate is smooth, and I found it easy to rack on these compared with others that have a bit of a hook on the nose that catches on things when you go to unclip.

Excellent locking carabiners

Some of the best screw gate carabiners, especially for the price. Smooth screw mechanism and doesn't get stuck. Also a great size for multiple uses.
