Snapgates

Snapgate karabiners (also known as carabiners, krabs or biners) for clipping ropes and slings together. Solid gates are usually preferred for sport climbing, and are available in a straight gate for clipping the bolt or a bent gate for clipping the rope to. Wiregates are made from a single piece of stainless steel wire and have a much simpler mechanism. They are lighter than solid gates, so they're ideal for keeping the weight of a large trad or alpine climbing rack down to a minimum. Wiregates won't freeze up when you're ice climbing, and are less prone to gate flutter due to the reduced mass.

We stock a wide range of karabiners from top climbing brands DMM, Wild Country, Black Diamond, Wild Country, Grivel, Edelrid, Metolius and Ocun, with multipacks offering great value for money.

    Regular Price: £39.99

    Special Price £35.99 save 10%

    Incl. 20% Tax

    The DMM PerfectO is a modern take on the classic oval karabiner, and it's now available in a multi-coloured 4 pack. Compact size for easy one-handed operation, its shape provides effective centring of loads and the fully rounded rope bearing areas increase karabiner and rope longevity. A keylock nose allows snag-free operation. We think this might be the perfect karabiner for racking your nuts on, due to the way your nuts dangle (ooo-errr) and the shape naturally resists flipping on your harness. Learn More
  3. Edelrid Pure Slider III Locking Karabiner - Oasis
    £18.00
    Incl. 20% Tax
    The Pure Slider III from Edelrid looks just like an ordinary snap-gate karabiner, but on closer inspection you'll notice the little slider tucked beneath the nose. This unique locking mechanism adds an extra element of safety to your sport draws (particularly on the first couple of clips), and will be especially of use on wandering traversey routes where the bolt end is at risk of self un-clipping. At just 47g, it's not much heavier than your standard solid gate either. Learn More

    £14.00
    Incl. 20% Tax

    One of the most hardwearing climbing karabiners around, the Edelrid Bulletproof features a steel insert to prevent burrs and excessive wear from contact with bolt hangers and pitons. The body of the krab is hot-forged aluminium, keeping the weight down, and the keylock nose gives you snag-free unclipping. Learn More
