Details
SMC Rescue Carabiners are the state-of-the-art in steel rescue carabiners. The D shape increases strength necessary for rescue situations. The locking mechanism used on these carabiners locks on the gate, not on the body of the carabiner. This allows you to tighten the knob, load the carabiner and not have to retighten the knob. The large size has a gate opening of 1.12", adequate to fit over the rail of a stokes litter. The X-Large size having an opening of 1.40", will fit standard 1.25" diameter ladder rung. The parts of these carabiners are meticulously finished and plated prior to assembly, insuring smooth free gate action. Meets NFPA 1983(2001)-General use where listed.
