Tree World - View Single Post - New 2007 ANSI Standards for carabiners and snap hooks

These really affect the manufacturer, they have to make the carabiners and snap hooks tough enough.

I think it's great that the gate has to be strengthened, all we have to watch for now is buying the right biners.

Here you go, a lot of people climb on these, only 10kn minor axis Jake Quik-Lok by Omega Pacific and other climbing equipment for Carabiners.

And this one, around 7kn minor axis
