    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.

        Picked up a whole slew of these Mad Rock Biners, could not beat the price. I've been using them for Trad and Sport climbing both. The weight, shape, style, price and action are all fantastic. Springy gates, smoth actions, easy clipping.[...]

          Best biner on my rack
          I have about ten of these now and they are my go to biner. The only thing about them that I have noticed is that when rapelling for any distance the paint tends to wear off where the roap runs, but its just asthetics. I love them!!

          Lightweight but easy to use. I wouldn't want this on my Quick-draws though, because I like big, heavy, and more durable biners for that. These have trad/alpine draws written all over them.

              I like the price and these are high quality, well machined and finished. They have held several falls and I have not noticed a failure yet. They meet my "still breathing" test.

                      Comments about Mad Rock Ultralight Bent Wire Gate Carabiner:

                      I picked up a half dozen of these, paired with the strait-gate version, for use in extendable draws. The fit and finish is at least as good if not better than you'll find in more expensive biners from Black Diamond, Metolius, etc. Smooth action and easy clipping; I'd highly recommend it for the rope end of draws, or use on shoulder-length slings.
