Review on Heavy Duty XINDA Screwgate Locking Carabiner Clip For Rock Climbing, Mountaineering, Hammock & Camping Outdoor Equipment by Keith Saywon

Saw the many 5 Star reviews on Ebay and purchased the five pack. I'm not a rock climber but needed something sturdy to rig zipline for my two grandchildren. Supposedly rated for something over 5000 lbs and marked with industry standard specification references for climbing carabiners. I internet searched XINDA to learn more about the company and everything I saw online was in Chinese. I don't read Chinese. No way will I suspend my grandchildren from these or any other human for that matter. Look to be great for holding gear, rigging ropes at campsites, etc. but I would never use to support a human. If you need a life safety carabiner go Petzl, Black Diamond, or the like. Petzl carabiners have individual serial numbers and each and every carabiner is load tested and you get paperwork with each explaining the standards of manufacture. Petzl might be three times as costly but it's your life.
