## Description

Product description Lightweight oval carabiner The lightweight OK carabiner is made of aluminum. It has an oval shape that allows optimal loading of devices with a wide cross-section, such as pulleys, rope clamps and mobile fall arresters. Its fluid interior design and Keylock system facilitate handling. It is available in three locking systems: automatic TRIACT-LOCK or BALL-LOCK system, or the manual SCREW-LOCK system. OK can be connected to the CAPTIV bar to favor positioning of the carabiner along the major axis, to limit the risk of it flipping and to keep it integrated with the device. Symmetrical oval shape allows optimal loading of devices with a wide cross-section, such as pulleys, rope clamps and mobile fall arresters Aluminum carabiner whose light weight reduces the weight of equipment the worker at height needs to carry May be used with a CAPTIV positioning bar to favor loading of the carabiner along the major axis, to keep it integrated with the device, and to limit the risk of it flipping Easier handling: - fluid interior design limits the risk of having a catch point and facilitates rotation of the carabiner - Keylock system to avoid any involuntary snagging of the carabiner H cross-section: - ensures an optimal strength/weight ratio - protects markings from abrasion Available in three different locking systems: - TRIACT-LOCK: automatic locking with triple-action gate opening - BALL-LOCK: automatic locking with triple-action gate opening, with lock indicator - SCREW-LOCK: the manual screw-lock with red band provides a visual warning when the carabiner is unlocked Also available in black (TRIACT-LOCK and SCREW-LOCK) Material(s): aluminum

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this carabiner uiaa certified? one reviewer claims that the picture is not the same model as the text listing. thank you.**
A: In Europe the EN and UIAA standards are generally identical however because this is the black version (tactical) Petzl has the item certified to professional standards.    The Screwlock H Frame Carabiner meets CE EN 362, EAC.     It is 27kN on the long axis, 8kN on the minor axis, and 7kN with gate open.    The standard color of the item which is identical is certified to CE EN 12275, UIAA.   

So the short answer to the question is that the black is not UIAA certified but that is only because it is the professional version of the non black which does have the UIAA certification.

**Q: How  mini kn is  this carabiner**
A: This particular carabiner is rated at 25 kN along the spine, and 7 to 8 kN across the gate.

**Q: Is the one size the triact lock type ?**
A: What is in the picture is triact I ordered it and that is what I got.

**Q: Asked for replacement because first order did not contain locking carabiner as described. Why as never given a choice of what kind of lock type?**
A: I had this concern when the "Green" "Ball Lock" model was only $15...that means it's not a ball lock but just a non-locker. The ball lock models are closer to $22. This is listed incorrectly on this page.
