Skylotec Tondo SGL HC-Screw Gate climbing carabiner

The Tondo SGL HC by Skylotec is a compact and robust HMS carabiner equipped with a screw gate and ACL system, meticulously designed for traditional climbing, sport climbing, and mountaineering in general where strength is a priority. This technical tool stands out for its special wear-resistant anodization, an advanced surface treatment that makes it ideal for intensive and prolonged use, ensuring superior longevity even in the harshest conditions. Particularly suitable for rope maneuvers at belays and for use with belay devices, it offers ample internal space that facilitates the execution of the half-hitch knot without any interference. Made from hot-forged lightweight alloy, the connector features a shaped profile that ensures an excellent weight-to-strength ratio, maintaining a solid yet manageable structure. A fundamental safety element is the ACL system, an internal lever that allows the carabiner to be securely attached to the harness's service loop, eliminating the risk of unwanted rotations and dangerous loads on the minor axis. The contact area with the rope has a circular section to optimize sliding and preserve the integrity of the equipment, while the fluid design of the nose and the closure without a catch tooth ensure total freedom of movement, avoiding any possible accidental snagging on ropes or anchors during insertion and removal.
