Black Diamond Wiregate Carabiner

The world's first wiregate carabiner for climbers, the Black Diamond HotWire carabiner has been revamped with an updated, 20% lighter hot-forged design. Its optimal size-to-weight ratio, flat gate-to-rope interface and resistance to freezing up in alpine conditions all ensure its continued popularity.
