Black Diamond Hotforge Bent Gate Carabiner

The HotForge Bent Gate Carabiner represents a contemporary evolution of the traditional keylock carabiner, specifically designed to function as the rope-end of a quickdraw. Its bent gate is remarkably easy to clip, and the carabiner boasts an extensive rope-bearing surface, offering exceptional durability. Crafted with a hot-forged construction, the HotForge allows material to be strategically added where durability is paramount, while reducing unnecessary weight. The carabiner features a deeper basket for smoother clipping, and the hinge-end basket has been flattened to ensure the quickdraw webbing remains securely in place. The increased rope-bearing surface not only enhances the carabiner’s longevity but also provides added protection for the rope. The flats on the gate minimise the chances of accidental gate openings, and the updated nose geometry facilitates smoother clipping and unclipping from bolts.
