Beal Twin Smith Captive

Large capacity, asymmetrical steel locking karabiner for both in- and outdoor lower-offs subjected to intensive use. Features the Twin-Gate concept with second wire gate. Twin Gate is a revolutionary concept for locking a karabiner, patented by Grivel. Clipping the rope is easier than with a classic HMS screwgate karabiner, making it ideal for use at a lower-off at the top of a route. The 11 mm round profile reduces abrasion and sheath slippage when top roping. The TWIN SMITH’s captive bar allows it to be permanently fixed to the lower-off.
