Representing the middle ground between the traditional gate carabiner and the classic wire gate carabiner, the Petzl Ange S weighs an ultralight 28 grams and provides optimal weight/strength ratio.

• Ideal for mountaineering and multipitch climbing where weight reduction is key
• Combines the fluidity of the spring gate with the lightness of the wire gate system
• Made from aluminum: ultralight and compact at 28 grams
• Petzl’s MonoFil Keylock ensures smoother opening and closing of the carabiner and a longer lifetime compared to traditional wire gate carabiners
• Shape of the nose is designed to optimize clipping and unclipping
• Wire gate is protected from lateral rubbing (against rock, etc.)
• Unique H-profile allows an optimal size and strength-to-weight ratio
• Indent on the bottom helps keep the String in place so that the sling is properly positioned on the carabiner
• Surfaces that come in contact with the rope and with the anchor are wider, favoring passage of the rope and reducing carabiner wear
• Nose of the carabiner has a hole that allows ice, snow, or dirt to be cleared out
• Deflector works with the shape of the carabiner to allow proper positioning of the carabiner on its major axis
