Phantom Snapgate

£9.99

Super light carabiner.

The Phantom is a highly focused lightweight climbing carabiner. I-Beam construction improves the strength to weight ratio, a minimised gate notch reduces snagging, and sound fundamental design encourages correct loading. The Phantom can be used on lightweight quickdraws, to rack gear, or to hold essentials like nut keys.

FEATURES

Super-light carabiner reduces rack weight

These carabiners are ideal for building a lightweight rack, whether it’s for fast and light alpine ascents or trad onsight success.

Wire gate for maximum weight saving

Wire gates are the lightest gate type available, and resist freezing shut in cold conditions. They are crucial in reducing the weight of your rack, and are ideal for trad, winter, and alpine climbing.

Small gate notch reduces snagging

Carabiners with wire gates need a gate notch to achieve their full strength rating. The notches on these carabiners are as small as possible while remaining functional, reducing the chance of them snagging on other equipment.

I-Beam construction for optimum strength to weight ratio

I-Beam construction techniques allow carabiners to be lighter without compromising strength. This is achieved through hot forging, a process which allows metal to be made into complex shapes that improve functionality.

Available in multiple colours for efficient gear selection

Coloured carabiners allow colour coding of gear on your rack, helping you select the right piece of protection first time on a big trad lead.

Use this 'biner to rack all my cams, as the combined weight saving as significant. They're plenty easy to use for this purpose.

My go to gear carabiner

My favourite wiregate carabiner, I rack pretty much everything individual on these now (cams). Plenty big enough to be comfortable in the hand and small enough that they reduce space on your rack for cams etc. compared to full size carabiners. Colour coding to gear is also spot on.

Great bit of kit

I use phantoms almost exclusively on my trad rack. Strong, lightweight and reliable. They feel like they weigh nothing!

I also like the good range of colours they come in. It allows me to colour code my gear (like my cams) because I like to be able to look down and see exactly what I’m reaching for.

Would recommend
