PETZL – AM’D Carabiners

The Am’D asymmetrical aluminum carabiner has a D shape best suited for connecting a belay system or for holding equipment. Its ergonomics and Keylock system facilitate manipulations, even when wearing gloves. The Am’D carabiner is available in three locking system versions: manual SCREW-LOCK system, or automatic BALL-LOCK and TWIST-LOCK systems.

INTENDED USE: The Am’D carabiner is an efficient shape for holding equipment or attaching to belay systems using either end of the carabiner.

EASY TO USE: The D shape offers good handling and is designed to be easy to grip with gloves on.
LOCKING SYSTEMS: Choose between three locking systems: Screw-Lock for occasional use or dirty environments, Ball-Lock for frequent use and use with triple-action opening, or Twist-Lock for quick opening and when connecting a GRIGRI.
NO MORE SNAGGING: Petzl’s Keylock system helps avoid accidentally snagging your carabiner on your gear.
