Black Diamond Hotforge Straight Gate Carabiner

The HotForge Straight Gate Carabiner offers a contemporary twist on the traditional keylock design. Specifically designed for the bolt-side of quickdraws, it stands as the most robust bolt-side carabiner ever made. Its straight gate ensures smooth and effortless clipping of bolts. With a hot-forged construction, this design enables the removal of excess weight while reinforcing areas where durability is paramount. The HotForge features a deeper basket for easier clipping, and the flatter hinge-end basket ensures that the webbing of quickdraws stays securely in place. A larger rope-bearing surface enhances the carabiner’s durability, while the gate’s flats decrease the chances of accidental gate opening. The updated nose geometry has been optimised for efficient clipping and unclipping from bolts.
