Pear-shaped locking carabiner with unidirectional positioning bar
Cross-loading carabiners are a thing of the past with the ATTACHE BAR. When used with the removable BAR, the pear-shaped ATTACHE carabiner is a versatile tool. It becomes a unidirectional carabiner, oriented to load the major axis and maximizing ease of use when belaying or using ropes for glacier travel. It has an H-frame to keep the weight low and the round-stock basket creates a smooth surface for the rope to run over, for easier belaying with the VERSO, REVERSO, or a Munter hitch.
