When a belay carabiner is cross loaded, its strength drops dramatically. The Belay Master’s innovative gate solves this problem forever. For added security the gate will not close unless the biner is screwed shut.
The large diameter round stock is easy on your rope and the biner works with any belay device including the Italian hitch.
