Wildcountry Synergy HMS Autolock Karabiner.

There are some situations where it’s absolutely necessary to be sure your karabiner is closed. So the full Autolock Synergy karabiner is what you need. This has a three stage mechanism that makes sure it must be deliberately opened and then when it’s let go it closes and autolocks itself. Meaning that there’s no more worrying about accidental unlocking. As with the standard screw it uses the same 12mm round bar construction, keeping a smooth profile for ropes, and enabling it to be used with a Munter hitch and a wider range of knots.

Features:

• HMS Karabiner.
• Autolock Gate.
• 22kn Closed Gate Strength.
