🚀 Want to understand carabiners like a pro? This video covers EVERYTHING you need to know about carabiners — from types, shapes, kN strength ratings, locking systems, uses, and top brands.
Whether you're into climbing, rescue, camping, abseiling, or EDC gear, choosing the correct carabiner can be life-saving.
🔍 WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:
✔️ What is a Carabiner?
✔️ Parts of a Carabiner (Gate, Spine, Nose, Lock)
✔️ Types of Carabiners (Locking & Non-locking)
✔️ Carabiner Shapes (D, Oval, HMS, Offset D)
✔️ Carabiner Strength Ratings (kN Explained)
✔️ Major Axis vs Minor Axis vs Open Gate
✔️ Best Carabiner Brands
✔️ Real Uses (Climbing, Rescue, Everyday Carry)
✔️ Safety Tips & Mistakes to Avoid
🧠 IMPORTANT FACTS (FROM VIDEO)
👉 Carabiners are metal connectors used in climbing and safety systems to connect ropes, harnesses, and anchors
👉 Strength is measured in kiloNewtons (kN) — NOT weight
1 kN ≈ 100 kg force
👉 Typical strength ratings:
Major Axis: 20–30 kN
Minor Axis: 6–10 kN
Open Gate: 7–9 kN
👉 Carabiners are strongest on the spine and weakest when the gate is open or side-loaded
👉 Most climbing falls generate only 2–5 kN force, far below breaking strength.
🔺 CARABINER SHAPES
🔹 D Shape – Strongest, shifts load to spine
🔹 Oval – Balanced but less strong
🔹 Offset D – Wider gate opening
🔒 TYPES OF LOCKING SYSTEMS
🔸 Screw gate (manual lock)
🔸 Auto-lock (twist/tri-lock)
🏆 TOP CARABINER BRANDS
✔️ Black Diamond
✔️ Petzl
✔️ CAMP
🎯 USES OF CARABINERS
✔️ Rock Climbing
✔️ Mountaineering
✔️ Camping & Hiking
✔️ Industrial Safety
✔️ Everyday Carry (EDC)
