OBS

The Twistlock concept is unique and represent a major advance in locking Karabiners. Use it wherever you would use a Screwgate Karabiner, i.e. on harnesses main belays, cosmic arrester, abseiling, etc. The twistlock action gives total security at all times. You cannot forget to lock the karabiner. The revolving ferrule not only locks the karabiner at the danger points, i.e. (a) where the gate opens, (b) at the hinge pin, but ensures that the ferrule cannot revolve until the gate is closed.

OBS

Twistlock gate with nylon collar resists freezing up.
