REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Reduce the weight of your rack and quickdraws with the Petzl Ange S Wiregate carabiner. It features an innovative MonoFil Keylock wiregate system that shaves weight and is smooth and easy to operate.

MonoFil Keylock wiregate system blends the strength and fluidity of a standard spring gate with the lightness of a wiregate
Ange S Wiregate carabiner weighs only 28g—that's 21g lighter than the popular Petzl Spirit Straight Gate carabiner
Straight keylock nose lets you clip and unclip slings, bolt hangers, nuts and cams without snagging; hole in the nose allows ice, snow and dirt to be cleared out
Surfaces that come into contact with the climbing rope are wider than other parts of the carabiner for smooth passage of the rope and reduced wear on the 'biner
Indent at the bottom of the Ange S carabiner keeps a sling properly positioned
Black deflector at the bottom of the gate works with the shape of the carabiner to keep proper position of the 'biner on its major axis

Please note: Petzl products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

Imported.

Comments about Petzl Ange S Wiregate Carabiner:

For their intended use, I think that the Ange is quite simply the best carabiner in the world. What's the intended use? Well, they make an incredible bolt end carabiner. I have never found that a big carabiner is necessary for the bolt end of a draw, because you're not fiddling around with clipping a rope. Instead, the Ange has a gate that's easy to open with one finger and clip into a bolt, a nut or a hex. I use other, bigger carabiners to clip the rope, but these are the lightest, smoothest clipping keylock carabiners on the market, and if you're going to use them for the right thing, then there's nothing better.

Comments about Petzl Ange S Wiregate Carabiner:

Was thinking about switching to these on all my alpine draws, but after working with them for a bit just didn't like how small they are. The small rounded gate is more difficult to manipulate than wire gates or bent gates. Maybe the ANGE L will be better
