Revolver Wiregate Carabiner

Quick Facts:

Who it's for? - Climbers & Canyoneers

What it does? - A wiregate carabiner with a built in pulley wheel for reduced friction

How it does it? - A built in pulley wheel reduces the friction of the rope moving through the carabiner

Description

A wiregate carabiner with a built in pulley wheel.

In rock climbing applications, the Revolver's integrated pulley wheel allows ropes to run more efficiently through the carabiner. Using it at changes of direction on a route helps reduce rope drag.

Canyoneers clip this to their helmet chin straps, then run the rope through it to help them quickly and efficiently stow ropes in rope bags.

Features

• Integrated pulley wheel for reducing friction - The pulley wheel reduces friction and increases movement efficiency. It can combat rope drag on complex pitches, and decrease rope wear when used as an anchor point when top roping. The Revolver can also create mechanical advantage in a lightweight hauling system, making it indispensable as part of a climber’s personal rescue kit. The pulley wheel is functional with loads up to 11kN.
• Wiregate for maximum weight saving - Wire gates are the lightest gate type available, and resist freezing shut in cold conditions. They help reduce rack weight, and are ideal for trad, winter, and alpine climbing.
• Small gate notch reduces snagging - Wire gate carabiners require a gate notch to achieve their full strength rating. Our notches are minimised while remaining functional, to reduce snagging on other equipment.
• I-Beam construction for optimum strength to weight ratio - I-Beam construction reduces carabiner weight without compromising strength. It is achieved through hot forging, which allows metal to be formed in complex shapes that improve functionality.
