Comments about Omega Pacific ISO Locking Standard D Screwgate Carabiner:

It's a big work horse. Get a few. You will get stronger. Just don't drop it on anyone! They really need to make it 25% smaller.

Workhorse anchor carabiner

By Alpha Geek

from Salt Lake City, UT

About Me Avid Climber, Casual/ Recreational

Site Member

Pros

  • Simple
  • Solid
  • Strong

Cons

  • Heavy
  • Small opening

Best Uses

  • Indoor climbing
  • Outdoor climbing
  • Top Roping

Comments about Omega Pacific ISO Locking Standard D Screwgate Carabiner:

These were my first lockers and I still use them for anchor building when I take people out for top rope sessions. They've taken a beating over the years but they show little wear and the screw gate still works well.

The weight is a deterrent to taking them on lead, as is the smaller opening that can make anchor building a chore after a hard lead.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best Aluminum carabiner for the money

By JV Rescue

from Seattle, WA

About Me Casual/ Recreational

Pros

  • inexpensive
  • Simple
  • Strong

Cons

    Best Uses

    • Anchor system
    • UtilityGear

    Comments about Omega Pacific ISO Locking Standard D Screwgate Carabiner:

    So far as Aluminum carabiners go, I think this is the best deal out there. It locks up tighter than the $16-$20 Petzel or Black Diamond, it's compact, lightweight and very strong. I have 6 of these, and I use all of them. They work especially well for (non-rescue) anchor systems, the 1-inch webbing fits perfectly in the ends.

      Great Starter Carabiner

      from San Jose, CA

      Pros

      • High Strength
      • Low cost
      • Scratch resistant
      • Simple

      Cons

      • Hard to ClipUnclip
      • Small Gate

      Best Uses

      • Indoor climbing
      • Long Climbs
      • Outdoor climbing

      Comments about Omega Pacific ISO Locking Standard D Screwgate Carabiner:

      This is a great, strong, low-cost carabiner that is perfect to start the rack of a beginning climber. I bought these as my first lockers and still use them to setup anchors all the time. My main lockers for ropework now are the Black Diamond Rocklock Screwgate biners simply because they are easier to clip and unclip and because they have a much bigger opening. That said, the OP ISO Carabiner is a rock solid carabiner ready to use in any high stress systems. They are great for anchoring Tyroleans, rescue systems, and just about any other anchor system where you can take your time to set it up.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

      Cons

      • Heavy

      Best Uses

      • Outdoor climbing

      Comments about Omega Pacific ISO Locking Standard D Screwgate Carabiner:

      Too heavy for spoiled modern lead climbers, and too-small-opening for complicated anchor building (and never intended for belay or rappel use!). But these 'biners are so durable, strong, and inexpensive, they're perfect for setting up top rope anchors for large groups (though OP's locking ovals are better for the powerpoint). I keep a handful around just for those big group days, and save my ultralights for myself!

      Suitable boat anchor.

      By Ringlock

      from Minneapolis

      About Me Avid Climber

      Site Member

      Pros

        Cons

        • Heavy
        • Poor clipping
        • Small gate opening

        Best Uses

        • Top rope anchor

        Comments about Omega Pacific ISO Locking Standard D Screwgate Carabiner:

        The gate opening is too small to properly use for belaying or rappeling,clipping a rope into it is a pain, and it's too bulky to rack gear on. But, it's beefy so it would work well for a top rope setup.

        Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

          This is probably the best D or even locking carabiner on the market with the 31kN(6967Lbs) of strength and a price of about $8 I would buy these whenever I need a locking carabiner.
