About the Black Diamond HotForge
The Black Diamond HotForge Carabiner is perfect for climbing missions that require a trusty locker.
Black Diamond have used their advanced Hot Forging technology to optimise the distribution of metal so they can remove weight where it’s not needed and add material to enhance the biner's durability. The biner is strong (24kN), light (50g), and contains a low-profile, non-snagging nose that’s easy to clip and clean.
An easy-to-hold functional and ergonomic shape makes the handling of this biner an absolute joy, and it has also been built to accommodate clove hitches.
The HotForge carabiner is great for climbers who seek reliability and durability during belaying and top-rope climbing.
