Black Diamond VaporLock Locking Carabiner

The ultralight Black Diamond VaporLock locking carabiner is an ideal choice for belaying, lowering and rappelling. Minimalist pear-shape design has a wide basket to allow use of a Munter hitch on ropes up to 9.4mm. When used in conjunction with an ATC the VaporLock effectively increases friction up to 30% during lowering or rappelling, helping maximize control. Made from anodized aluminum for lasting service. The sleeve locks on the gate, eliminating the possibility of the 'biner being over-tightened or ''frozen'' when loaded. Keylock nose will not snag on bolts or gear while clipping and unclipping.
