Product Description
Featuring some of the lightest fully functional carabiners on the market, these CAMP rack packs are ideal for rock climbing, alpinism, and general camping. The Nano is designed for fluid use with ropes of all diameters, and has been recently upgraded with a stronger open gate strength, a refined gate for easy clipping, and a deeper basket for holding the rope in its proper position Read More
Would these be a good choice for a keyring?
I like to clip my car and house key to the belt loop beside my buckle, using two split rings to give enough length to allow the keys to hang in the corresponding pocket.
My existing nonsense carabiner just gave up the ghost on me.
I am thrilled to present CAMP to our Ultralight Community. I have been a big fan of this company since I met the staff at ISPO in Germany in 2011, where I learned more about the history and got to see the extensive line of amazing lightweight products. I was then lucky enough to out several of their products in the Dolomites that winter/spring. CAMP makes a wide range of gear and clothing for climbing, backcountry skiing and racing, though they are best known in the US for climbing gear. The biners in this drop are some of the lightest available, and obviously are made for climbing, and also uses in other areas like mountaineering, hammock camping, and emergency prep. I hope to see more CAMP gear here in the future, and more climbing gear in general for our community. What do you think?
@seenypaul - thanks for the question. This shouldn't have been labeled as the 'Best of Massdrop' - it was our error in setting up the page, and this has been fixed. Thanks!
CAMP makes good stuff. Aside from the obvious climbing applications, the Nano is a pretty good choice for those that like biners for their hammock set-up. How about some CAMP quickdraws (better yet, the 5-packs) in the future?!
By the way, I give carabiners as gifts to my children and friends as key holders and they love them. I also use the different colors to indicate what the keys are for. My keys have a yellow carabiner, my wife a blue carabiner, the extra set of keys a red carabiner, the school bus that I drive a green carabiner etc.
badassIf they're not for climbing use, you can get biners that are (as far as I can tell) identical on AliExpress for 1.60 each and free shipping.
Not sure I'd trust them for climbing use, but their supposedly rated 12kn and I've suspended my hammock with them dozens of nights without issue.
badassyeah you are correct the school bus carabiner should be yellow. Will have to change to the yellow one. I like these carabiners because they hold 21 kilonewtons which is approximately 4700 pounds!! for about 6 bucks each, wow!!
I use carabiners for keys as well. Yes I know cheap aluminum carabiners will work okay but I feel that having a product that can be used in an emergency as your key chain is consoling. I have used mine for a pulley when hanging a heavy pinata, for towing a car a short distance, for attaching straps to my truck when tying down large loads that extend higher than the sides of my truck. To have a product always on hand for these emergencies is excellent. I will never climb but that does not mean I can't use climbing equipment for other uses.
Awesome to see CAMP here! I'd love to see a drop for their light mountaineering gear - simple harness, helmet, and ice ax! Although, maybe this would be better later in the year like late winter / early spring.
