Carabiners
All you ever (needed) to know about Carabiners
There's a massive range of carabiners for climbing and other uses. They were originally developed for industrial use but were adopted by climbers as the ideal solution to clip into belay points and protection points without complex knots.
There are six main types of carabiner:
Clippers - these are simple spring gated devices
Screw Gate carabiners where the sprung gate can be held closed by loosely tightening a retaining screw.
HMS carabiners are pear shaped screw gate carabiners - at least one of these is essential equipment for every climber.
Automatic gated carabiners greatly assist in accident prevention.
Via Ferrata Carabiners for one handed operation
Accessory carabiners which are NOT for climbing
