PETZL Attache Bar snap hook

Pear-shaped locking carabiner with unidirectional positioning bar Cross-loading carabiners are a thing of the past with the Attache BAR. When used with the removable BAR, the pear-shaped Attache carabiner is a versatile tool. It becomes a unidirectional carabiner, oriented to load the major axis and maximizing ease of use when belaying or using ropes for glacier travel. It has an H-frame to keep the weight low and the round-stock basket creates a smooth surface for the rope to run over, for easier belaying with the Verso, Reverso, or a Munter hitch. Features: Unidirectional ATTACHE carabiner with BAR: - Removable BAR orients the carabiner to load the major axis for ease when belaying or using ropes for glacier travel - BAR cannot be closed if the gate is not fully locked, limiting the risk of user error - Carabiner gate cannot be accidentally unlocked when BAR is installed in the closed position ATTACHE carabiner without BAR: - Round-stock basket provides a smooth surface for the rope to run over when belaying with a Munter hitch, VERSO, or REVERSO - Partial H-frame optimizes the strength-to-weight ratio - Pear-shape design is versatile for climbing and mountaineering Easy to use: - SCREW-LOCK locking system provides good handling and effective locking - Keylock system and smooth nose help prevent the carabiner from snagging during use - Easy to use when wearing mountaineering gloves Specifications: - Material(s): Aluminum, nylon - Certification(s): CE EN 12275 type H, UIAA - Weight: 63 g
