Our lightest screw lock carabiner with smooth-running brass sleeve and its great handling works perfectly in alpine terrain, for multi-pitch routes and traditional and also industrial climbing. The unique shape of the MICRO combines a wide gate opening with high strength and allows for smooth gliding properties especially for half ropes. Thereby, its wide inner shape guarantees rope-protecting climbing. With unique identification number.

Standards that the carabiner meets:

Rules for caring for the carabiner:

Clean muddy/dirty carabiners with clean water, a washcloth and/or a soft brush. Air Dry - Never dry on a strong heat source. Every gear component where metal rubs against metal needs lubrication to keep it running smoothly. For carabiners, dry lubricant should be used instead of oil as commercially available oil will cause dust and dirt to build up. Grease should be applied to all holes when the carabiner is in both open and closed positions. Especially important: After use near or in the sea (where there is a high concentration of salt in the air and water), clean the carabiner immediately to avoid salt damage to the metal of the carabiner.
