Product Description
As an HMS, or pear-shaped carabiner, the Pirate easily accommodates the use of a wide range of gear, webbing or ropes--either as a belay biner at the harness, or as a connector in a system. The Pirate's robust 0.5" diameter round frame will endure abuse from dirty ropes and metal connectors far beyond stamped carabiners with thin edges. The Pirate's durability matched with Rock Exotica's build quality ensures an impressive service life for the working professional or recreational enthusiast.
AUTO-Lock GateThe 3-stage auto-locking carabiner features a pull-down and twist action--a motion that's more intuitive and natural for your hand than lifting up and away from your palm. Once you try it, you're likely to never go back!
Rock Exotica identified several surfaces where ropes and lanyards can be held up by the edges of the gate and sleeve, which can lead to dangerous cross-loading. They have designed their AUTO-Lock sleeve with beveled edges to minimize this risk, and provide a smoother interior for the materials connected to the carabiner.
WireEyeThe WireEye series of carabiners combines the utility of a standard carabiner with the safety and capability of a lanyard pin, or captive eye. The WireEye holds gear, lanyards and lines with enough resistance to help prevent gear from moving past the end of the carabiner, but releases easily when lifted up. When the potential for dangerous leverage or cross-loading can occur, the WireEye helps keep the carabiner oriented correctly, and the gear where it belongs.
The WireEye is available on the Pirate and rockO frames in 3 stage auto-lock, and screw-lock on the Pirate frame.
