Description
Engineered in Austria for extreme loads, high-wear rigging, and heavy-duty industrial safety, the AustriAlpin D ASYMM Screwlock (Model TN11AK) is a heavy-duty steel carabiner crafted from high-strength zinc-plated steel. Featuring an asymmetrical D-shape design, it naturally directs loads along the major axis where the carabiner is strongest, delivering an impressive 40 kN minimum breaking strength. Equipped with a manual screwgate locking mechanism, it provides reliable gate security for rigging, heavy abseiling, rescue operations, and personal protective equipment (PPE) anchor points
How To Use
-
Opening & Locking: Spin the threaded screw sleeve downward to release the gate, push open, and insert your rope or anchor. To lock, release the gate and thread the screw sleeve fully upward over the gate nose until tightly secured.
-
Orientation & Loading: Position the carabiner so that the load aligns directly along the strong main spine (major axis). Never load cross-wise against the gate or minor axis.
-
Maintenance & Care: Keep threads clear of dirt, sand, and debris. Clean with warm water, dry thoroughly, and apply a light oil drop to the gate pivot and screw threads periodically.
