Oval carabiners are a real technological challenge. Because of its shape, the load is shared equally between the spine and gate sides of the carabiner, which typically results in lower strength ratings; but not with Omega Pacific! However, with our exclusive ISO Cold Forging process, we are able to compensate by shifting material and putting aluminum where it needs to be to reinforce the frame. Compare for yourself and you?ll see that we have one of the strongest oval carabiners on the market Major Axis Strength: 22kN | Gate Open Strength: 6kN Length: approximately 4" Made in the USA
