Petzl Ange Carabiner - Large
The Petzl ANGE carabiner is a perfect way to save weight in your rack and has a major advantage over traditional gate and wire gate biners. The Ange combines the fluidity of a snapgate with the lightness of the wire gate system by using an innovative MonoFil Keylock system which gives the Ange a good smooth nose and secure closure.
The Ange Carabiner Large has a greater capacity and strength than it's popular little brother (Petzl Ange Small) but still only weighs in at 34 grams. The H-profile of the body provides an excellent weight to strength ratio, the Petzl Ange is perfect for big racks when weight saving is important.
