Palm Equipment Wire Gate Karabiner (Carabiner)

Super Wide Opening (35mm) makes it easy to clip Paddles and Kayak Handles.  This carabiner (Karabiner, Biner) is easy to maintain in saltwater environments with no hidden springs etc. to clog up and jam. Utilised for rescues to tow kayaks or paddles it can also be used to clip items to deck lines e.g. paddles whilst hands are occupied holding other items so handy for general use. It is worth noting that as well as being easy to visually inspect/maintain (having no hidden spring on the gate) as a rule of thumb wiregates are also lighter, more reliable, easier to clip, especially with colder hands, less likely to spring open when jarred, compared to “Solid” bar style carabiners.
