Petzl Am'D Ball Lock 3 Way Carabiner - Grey

The Petzl Am'D Ball Lock 3 Way Carabiner is a lightweight, asymmetrical aluminium connector designed for professional work at height where frequent, secure connections are required. Its D-shaped profile is particularly well suited to attaching devices such as belay systems, descenders, and positioning lanyards, helping maintain stable alignment when loaded. Built for arborists and rope access professionals, this carabiner combines strength, smooth handling, and an intuitive automatic locking system for demanding daily use.

D-shaped profile for versatile and stable connections

The Am’D’s asymmetrical D shape supports efficient major-axis loading, which is essential when connecting critical devices or carrying multiple items. The shape allows the carabiner to be loaded on either end, making it suitable for belay systems and equipment organisation on the harness. Its compact yet generous internal capacity also allows it to hold a larger quantity of gear without compromising handling or balance during movement.

Ball Lock automatic locking for frequent use

This version features the Ball Lock automatic locking system, designed for repeated clipping and unclipping during professional tasks. The triple-action opening mechanism helps reduce the risk of accidental gate opening while remaining practical for frequent use. With a 25 mm gate opening, the Ball Lock system supports smooth attachment to ropes, slings, and devices, even when wearing gloves or working in challenging conditions.

Lightweight aluminium construction with refined handling

Manufactured from aluminium, the Am’D Ball Lock weighs 75 g, helping reduce overall equipment weight without sacrificing performance. It offers a major axis strength of 27 kN, supporting demanding applications at height. The ergonomic shape is easy to grip, even with gloves, while the Keylock nose helps prevent snagging during clipping and unclipping. These features combine to support efficient, predictable handling throughout the working day.
