The Carabiner is featuring a hot-forged construction—allowing us to remove weight where it’s not needed and add material where durability is key—and a hinge-basket that holds the sling of a Camalot adds durability not only for the carabiner, but for your rope as well, plus we’ve optimized the nose geometry to allow for efficient clipping, making the LiteWire an ultra-durable wiregate just waiting to be racked.Features Durable workhorse ideal for trad climbing Hot-Forged for lighter-weight construction Larger rope-bearing surface for added durability Nose geometry allows for efficient clipping/unclipping Specs Closed Gate Strength: 24 kN (5,395 lbf) Gate Opening: 23 mm (0.9 in) Minor Axis Strength: 8 kN (1,798 lbf) Open Gate Strength: 8 kN (1,798 lbf) Display Weight: 32 g (1.3 oz)
