Our best selling carabiner has been scaled down to create the ultimate accessory connector. Oval carabiners are a technological challenge because of their shape – the load is shared equally between the spine and gate sides of the carabiner, which typically results in lower strength ratings. With our hot forging process, we are able to compensate by shifting material and putting aluminum where it needs to be to reinforce the frame to achieve and impressive 4kN rating. The oval allows for proper orientation and helps to limit load shifting while in use. The Micro Raider is perfect for throwline use, a direct connection from your chest harness to tend a climbing system, mounting a handsaw, and any other non-PPE function you can think of.
