Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:

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.[...]

Comments about Mad Rock Ultra Tech Screwgate Locking Carabiner:

I've own several lockers including Bdel, Petzl, Omega and this one performs just as good if not better @ at almost half the price. It works just like a locking caribiner is suppose to. Smooth action and very light. I will keep buying for this for my rack.

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.

Does the job in most situations where a locker is called for. This carabiner seems to be alot cheaper than most but feels great and hasn't missed a beat in the month or so that I've been using them

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.

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:

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.

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!
