Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:
Numerous times during my self-rescue class I had difficulty opening the screw gate. This mainly occurred when my hands were particularly sweaty and I may have enthusiastically tightened it down to begin with. This happened once while I was hanging on the rope and had to have the instructor help unlock the gate because I could not get the leverage on it while it was attached to my belay loop supporting my weight. Even he had difficulty getting it open. I think the main factors to difficulty opening is the lack of texture and having a very thin line between tight and over-tight on the screw gate.

Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:
I got these because the BD positrons were out of stock at the local REI. They are great! Smooth action on the gate and screw, light, good feel, and I think they look good too. A friend who works for [@] commented when I handed him these while setting up an anchor "these are smooth! Who makes them?", and after I told him Mad Rock, said "Well, MR doesn't have a ton of market share but they will if they keep making gear like this!"

Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:
I picked this Carabiner up at my Local REI store because I needed a general purpose locking 'biner for use. I currently use it as an Autoblock biner and a backup for my daisy. I need to get more, because they are great for nearly everything. They are not going to break anytime soon , being rated for 27x10x11 kilonewtons. I would definately recommend this to anyone!

Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:
Keylock nose is a nice touch. Very light. I use two of them attached to my titan chain to anchor in at the end of routes. Spin locking mechanism is very smooth and has a nice short throw.
Overall good biner for a good price.

Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:
I love this carabiner. Depending on the type of hangers and the rock face, I've sometimes had issue clipping into the anchors with other biners I've used; but these always work smoothly. If I'm doing single pitch sport, these suckers are on my PAS.

They're easy to clip, easy to lock, and easy to unlock. The keylock nose is great for keeping stuff from snagging. They're fairly lightweight. Highly recommended.

When I saw these in Tempe, AZ I bought a couple just to try them out. The gate operates smoothly and the finish work on the biner is excellent. Great price! I'm glad I bought them.

Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:
I looked for this Carabiner for about 6 weeks after seeing the specs online. When i finally found it in store, i bought the last one as soon as i saw it. It is trustworthy, the locking action is smooth, and it is very lightweight. You can always trust mad rock hardware. It is top of the line.

Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:
The keylock nose looks a little funny, but other than that I see no problems with them. Cheaper and lighter than the omega pacific D locker, but probably wont last as long.
