Wild Country Xenon HMS Belay

Product description
Xenon HMS Belay is a compact and reliable pear-shaped screwgate HMS carabiner, with an internal belay wire for belay duty. The carabiner is made of lightweight aluminium alloy. It has a pear-shaped design with an I-beam profile to offer an improved strength-to-weight ratio. Designed to offer a large gate opening with high open gate strength and a generous rope bearing radius, the Xenon can comfortably accommodate two clove hitches. The clean nose design helps prevent knots or gear from snagging. The Xenon Carabiner is a durable, reliable partner with easy handling for all styles of climbing.
As cross-loaded carabiners have significantly less breaking strength than when loaded lengthwise, Wild Country offers the Xenon HMS in a “belay” version with an internal positioning wire for additional protection to ensure that the carabiner always has correct orientation for maximum breaking strength when belaying.
All Wild Country carabiners undergo rigorous testing and conform to standards EN 12275 and UIAA121 for climbing and mountaineering equipment to ensure high breaking strength, and can be used in all situations.

— Show originalIn my opinion, the best belay, because it is compatible with all harnesses and belay devices compared to, for example, Bläkkär's implementation.| Overall rating |
— Show originalThe quality seems to be ok, but I don't understand the function/orientation of the wire gate. It must be opened separately so that the Belay loop can be threaded under it. If you forget to do it, the wire gate can be damaged when the climber falls. I think a better solution is DMM Ceros.| Overall rating |
Works well with an ATC. Nice curve for the rope to go through.
