Elk River Carabiner Twist Lock Opening Review

Using this carabiner twist lock opening made of durable material, our team found that it was easy to attach to safety gear and it provided a secure hold while on the job .The product is perfect for those in the industrial and scientific field who value safety. However, it may be a bit pricey compared to other similar products on the market..

Through trial and error, I found that this carabiner often unlocks unexpectedly, putting me at risk on the job. The twist-lock mechanism is flimsy and prone to failure which is unacceptable when it comes to personal safety..

I'm an installer in the entertainment industry. I bought it with the intention of using it as my main steelmaking tool. I should have measured the dimensions before purchasing because it is HUGE. Additionally, the rating of 3600lb or not is significantly lower than other, more compact carabiners that can be used for similar purposes. I ended up using it for my setup when scoring points in the arena.
