Love these little carabiners
I picked up a handful of these for all three of my family's hiking packs. I love that they have a bunch of color options available, and all the edges are nice and smooth. We use them for all kinds of stuff, hanging clothes and towels to dry, clipping to our hats so I don't have to deform it in my bag or to secure it on a windy day. They also work great when I wanted to add a little more storage on my hammock ridgeline. After our last camping trip, I decided to pick up a handful more because we used them so often.
Great little biners...
I actually bought these carabiners to use in institutional, and thus heavy, bear hangs. We sometimes have 100+ pounds in food bags going up a tree. To hoist these loads we often use 3:1 mechanical advantage. Although the forces generated are far less than climbing scenarios, said forces are far more than cheap keychain carabiners. The price and weight made sense for us. They are small, light, beautifully machined with lovely muted colours. As a bonus, we now have a few full-strength carabiners within our kit should we unexpectedly need them during if our navigation-goes-wrong! Thanks, BD - another great product.
Good biners yo
Great racking biners used for the double part of my double rack. I like these more than the lite wires. The weight savings are really nice and they're super easy to clip.
The perfect size for racking cams!
Love these lil guys. Have never had an issue getting on/off harness. Maybe if you tend to not extend (like at the creek) with a draw you may want a litewire for a bigger rope basket? But to each their own. Where I climb I’m generally extending so this is perfect. I would still trust my piece 100% clipping directly into him. (Pictured middle)
Great carabiner for trad racks and runners.
I love these small (yet comfortable to use) and super light carabiners. The color coding matches every piece of my rack, and there are additional colors which I use on my runners and other things (black, mint, hot pink, and octane).
The one on my trad rack
I have about 20 on my rack to match with my trad gear (cams). The only point I would improve on this carabiners are the little tooth they have and sometimes get stuck when you what the take it off, don't slide easily.
Light Weight Love
Bought as replacement clips for my eno hammock system. Works great, looks great. Very light weight and sturdy.
My go-to carabiners for carrying gear
I used to use my main locking carabiners to carry my gear on the harness for search and rescue operations. However, I found myself always rearranging things because I needed one of the main carabiners or the other, and they were always used by the gear. I'm very happy with these MiniWire carabiners - they are super light, a pleasure to use and allow me to carry all my gear on the harness while freeing up my main, locking carabiners for the actual rescue tasks. Great purchase!
Great little carabiner!
Nice, cheap carabiner for holding random gear, but also rated for climbing use if I need to.
