I use these on my belay device, personal anchor, and when I 'm building an anchor for my second. A little heavy, but I love how smooth they are.

Bought for multi pitch trad and sport climbing. Good size and shape for using as a master point or tying munters. Gate is easy to manipulate.

This beaner gets the job done! The locking mechanism is a breeze to operate and the durability is second to none.

I love using this Black Diamond Hotforge Screwgate Carabiner. Aesthetically, it looks rad, it is lightweight, and the twist lock gives you added protection.

5 Samuel S
Nice small locking biner. Compact and it comes in a cool black finish

5 James J
Great lightweight locker

When they first arrived in the mail they were way smaller than expected and I was kind of shocked, but as soon as I started using them they became my favorite carabiners yet. They handle so easily in your hand and the screwgate is super smooth.

Because I really liked how the gates felt whilst clipping. I Used this product mostly for lead climbing and the extra length really helped in some of the tricky positions you get into. I have always liked the way Mammut carabiners feel. They feel secure but not to stiff to make clipping hard in any way. This product is great for beginner to expert climbers.

Mammut Sender series gear is light and ready to help get you to the top. I have complete trust in Mammut gear and have never seen any reason to question it. These are long and light and make an excellent addition to your rack.

At first, I was a little confused on what to expect because the product image shows one carabiner with a keylock gate and another carabiner with a wire gate, however in the description it says that both are keylock. In reality, both carabiners are keylock, which is such a nice bonus to me since you do n't have that little lip that a lot of wire gates have which can get caught. Additionally, the gate are a bit more curved, rather than the straight gates shown in the image. This makes clipping a bit easier for me. The carabiners feel pretty lightweight. This is my first set of quickdraws, and for the price, they seem like an amazing value. I 'm very happy with these and would highly recommend them. Super high quality and nice looking. I do wish the slings/dogbones were slightly longer, but I knew what I was getting. My next set of quickdraws will probably be a little bit longer.

5
TLDR; Super sweet quickdraws with nice action and the thick dog bones make them relatively nice to grab. The length is awesome for sport climbs but may be a bit short for longer, wandering routes. Indicator webbing is also comforting to have! For context, I mainly use these quickdraws for sportclimbing, and for sportclimbs, they 're amazing. The keylock carabiners are nicely sized and super smooth making them super easy to to clip/unclip them. The hanger/bolt side carabiner has some texture on the gate that also make clipping/unclipping easier. The webbing used for the dog bone is quite thick so despite appearances, they are comfortable to grab when required. The dog bones being 10cm may be a bit short for longer wandering routes, but for most sport routes, I have n't had a huge issue. The indicator webbing is also a nice feature!!

5 Jesse P
Sturdy, well made. Works great for sport climbing.

5 Aaron B
I have used these quickdraws many times while climbing in RRG and some other outdoor crags and these draws have yet to show any wear — even after a few solid whips and unfortunate bolt placements. These draws are very satisfying to open and close which is very nice for peace of mind when I hear the click of the gate when clipping. Only downside is that these are a little heavy if that would bother you, but they make up for the extra weight in durability. Perfect for sport climbing!

4
The draws themselves work great and are very light, but I feel they are a little bulky and really crowd the gear loops

5 Porter H.
We just purchased a bunch of new gear for our outdoor adventure summer camp, Missoula Outdoor Learning Adventures, including stoppers, cams, rope, ATC's, locking biners, harnesses, etc. As owner, BD is the clear choice for me when I 'm putting other people's children( and my own!) on the rock. We 've been using BD gear for 20+ years, I 've never been disappointed, and I always feel confident sending groups out to climb. With excellent attention to details of safety and functionality, BD earns a 5 star rating from me.

5 Lee P.
Nice light low profile locker- excellent to use for anchors

5 Hamilton, R.
I 've used them only a handful of times as belay carabiners. Work well and are small enough that they do n't get in the way

These carabiners are light and keep well. Used in multi pitch without issues. Really like how light they are!

Super durable draw. Carabiner gates are wide and easy to clip.

5 Nathaniel Y
Great price, good quality. some people say they are kinda heavy, but if you are climbing under 5. 12.... the minimal weight difference probably does n't make that much of a difference.

5 jay t
well crafted, light, confidence building. Used in Upper Pennisula climbs and down in Wisco.

5 Nick H
Really great draws for the cost. The wire gates keep them light and they feel very robust.

I Loke that it is easy to use with gloves on due to there size. The solid gate wake it easy to take from the gear loop and the wire gate save on weight. I like them for ice climbing. In summer I use lighter draws with small carabiners. I would like to see those draws with a 15- 18cm dogbone. Short draws are nice for some sport route, but then I personnaly use ligther draws.

[ It clips, it whips, and it even looks pretty as harness candy. It does n't judge you when you grab on to the dog bone mid climb panic like some other skinnier draws do.

Frequently Asked Questions For Keylock Nose Carabiners

A keylock nose carabiner features a smooth, snag-free design that prevents the gate from catching on ropes or gear. This design is particularly beneficial for reducing the risk of accidental opening during use. Unlike traditional carabiners with a hooked nose, keylock versions provide a more streamlined experience, making them ideal for climbing and other outdoor activities.

Keylock nose carabiners offer several advantages for climbers, including enhanced safety and ease of use. Their snag-free design allows for quick clipping and unclipping, which can be crucial during climbs. Additionally, they tend to be lighter than other carabiners, making them a popular choice for those looking to minimize gear weight.

Yes, keylock nose carabiners are versatile and suitable for various climbing styles, including sport climbing, trad climbing, and alpine climbing. Their design helps prevent accidental openings, making them a reliable choice for both beginners and experienced climbers. Depending on the specific activity, climbers may choose different locking mechanisms or shapes to best suit their needs.

Keylock nose carabiners are typically made from durable materials such as aluminum or steel, which offer strength and resistance to wear. Aluminum carabiners are lighter and often preferred for climbing, while steel options provide added durability for heavy-duty applications. The choice of material can affect the carabiner's weight, strength rating, and overall performance.

Choosing the right keylock nose carabiner involves considering factors such as the type of climbing you will be doing, the weight of the carabiner, and the locking mechanism. It's important to select a carabiner that meets the strength requirements for your specific activities. Additionally, evaluating the size and shape can help ensure it fits well with your gear and provides the functionality you need.

Yes, keylock nose carabiners can be used for a variety of purposes beyond climbing, including camping, hiking, and securing gear. Their snag-free design makes them useful for attaching items without the risk of tangling. However, it's essential to ensure that the carabiner's strength rating is appropriate for the intended use to ensure safety and reliability.
