    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.

            Comments about Black Diamond Rocklock Twistlock Carabiner:

            Great for use with Belaying device I have an ATC and the Grigri 2 and I use it for this two device the diameter is just perfect for the grigri I can slide it all around. Also the design on the gate is really good and I tried everything possible to get the gate not to close properly and the way its design that does not happen. I tried many other auto-locking Carabiner and they have a faulty design that right before it closes the auto design keep the gate from properly closing some times. This Carabiner is also easy to open when you want to. You don't need to go down then twist it very easy however it will not open accidentally. The only downside is that this Biner is a little on the heavy side but worth it for the safety it provides even on long climbs.

            Comments about Black Diamond Rocklock Twistlock Carabiner:

            I bought two of these to save time coming down rap routes to quickly anchor myself. These are huge time savers and are very safe. Have not had a malfunction. I would recommend screw lock D carabiners for attaching harness to a belay device as the shape of the Twist Lock can get caught in the sidewise position.

              I have one for each of my belay devices. The Auto-Lock really allows me to worry more about the rope and knots. Close-it, check-it, then I can move on.

                  Great Carabiner! works excellent and i have had no problems with it for the last 4 years! Only down-fall is that the twist lock hinge needs to be "lubbed" or sprayed with WD-40 once in a while but not very often!
