Petzl OK Carabiner

The oval shape is specifically designed to center the load, making it the ideal choice for pulleys, rope clamps, and mobile fall arresters. Unlike D-shaped carabiners, which shift the load toward the spine, the OK carabiner keeps wide devices perfectly positioned for smoother operation.

The manual screw-lock mechanism features a red band that becomes visible when the gate is unlocked. It provides a quick, reliable safety check at a glance, ensuring you know immediately if the carabiner is not fully secured.

Yes, it is fully compatible with the Petzl CAPTIV positioning bar. Using this accessory helps keep the carabiner oriented along its major axis, which significantly reduces the risk of the device flipping or cross-loading during critical tasks.

Absolutely. The keylock system eliminates the hook found on traditional carabiners, allowing you to clip and unclip gear, ropes, or webbing without the nose catching on your equipment.

The Petzl OK Screw-Lock has a major axis strength of 25kN, which is the standard rating for most professional climbing and rescue applications.
