Climbing Technology Axis HMS Captive 3 Way Carabiner - Silver

Climbing Technology Axis HMS Captive 3 Way Carabiner - Silver

The Climbing Technology Axis HMS Triple Locking Captive Carabiner is designed for professional rope work where correct orientation, secure handling, and predictable performance are essential. Its HMS shape and captive design support safe use with belay and abseiling devices, helping maintain correct loading during complex rope operations. Built for reliability, this carabiner is well suited to arborist, climbing, and rope access applications.

Shape engineered for correct axial loading

The Axis HMS profile is specifically designed to guarantee correct axial loading in relation to the rope and connected devices. This reduces the risk of cross loading when belaying, abseiling, or managing multi-point systems. The large overall size and ample internal clearance make it suitable for use with a Munter hitch knot, as well as securing more than one rope, sling, or device during general rope manoeuvres.

Efficient strength to weight performance

An accentuated double-T profile delivers an excellent weight to strength ratio, allowing the carabiner to remain strong without unnecessary bulk. The teardrop-shaped body improves ease of gripping and handling, particularly when working with gloves or managing repeated connections. Manufactured from dural alloy, the carabiner balances durability with manageable weight for extended professional use.

Captive positioning with secure locking action

The integrated ACL system uses a steel spring at the base of the carabiner to attach it to a harness belay loop, helping maintain the correct orientation during belaying and rappelling. This positioning supports safe use with belay and abseiling devices such as bucket-style devices or figure-of-eight descenders. A catch-free closure with specially profiled edges helps prevent accidental snagging on ropes, harnesses, or other equipment. The tri-lock gate provides a secure locking action while remaining straightforward to operate.
