Double-Action Twist-Lock Steel Carabiner, 2-Pack
The 17D-1 is the forged steel workhorse connector: a double-action twist-lock gate with a 1 inch opening, corrosion-resistant finish, and the strength margin that lets it live anywhere in the system. Sold as a 2-pack.
Forged steel construction delivers maximum strength and durability with a locking action that cannot open against a load.

Who Needs This Product
Carabiners disappear into systems two at a time, which is how this one is sold: connecting SRL housings to anchor straps, building rescue rigs, and replacing the connector that walked off last week. The double-action twist-lock satisfies the standards everywhere a connector belongs.
