What to Compare Before Buying
- Load direction: The major-axis and cross-loaded ratings differ. Check which stated rating applies to the intended setup.
- Gate opening: The opening is 0.66 in. Compare that measurement with the connection requirements of your setup.
- Quantity and dimensions: Confirm that a four-pack and the listed dimensions suit your needs.
Choosing the Correct Version
Check that the selected item is the black four-pack and that its twist-lock mechanism, dimensions, and stated ratings match your requirements. Do not treat the major-axis rating as the cross-loaded rating.
Before You Decide
Confirm the pack quantity, gate opening, and applicable load rating. For climbing use, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the exact product.
