Petzl Ange S

Introduction

Ultra-light, compact carabiner with MonoFil gate

The ANGE S carabiner represents the best of both traditional solid and classic wire gate carabiners. Petzls MonoFil technology and the H-shaped cross-section offer an ultra lightweight of 28 grams and an optimal strength-to-weight ratio. The shape of the nose and the Keylock system help prevent the carabiner from snagging when clipping and unclipping. It is especially suited for mountaineering and multi-pitch alpine climbs where every grams counts.

Detailed description

Description

• Ultra-lightweight and compact:
  – Compact and weighing just 28 g, its the ideal choice for mountaineering and multi-pitch climbing
  – Carabiner size and strength-to-weight ratio are optimized due to the H-shaped cross-section
• Easy to clip and unclip:
  – MonoFil gate opens and closes smoothly and offers a much longer lifetime compared to traditional wire gate carabiners; the wire gate is inset within the frame, reducing the chance of it rubbing against the rock
  – Keylock system is designed to avoid snagging on a gear loop, piton, rope, or webbing
  – Nose of the carabiner has a hole that allows ice, snow, or dirt to be cleared out
  – Flat carabiner spine provides stability when holding it in your hand or pinch clipping
  – Wide contact surface with the rope and bolt hanger for better rope glide and reduced wear on the carabiner
