The UIAA equipment standard provides a baseline for equipment performance in a test lab under controlled conditions on new equipment. Although these test conditions are relevant to the conditions encountered climbing, conditions encountered at the crags and the condition of the equipment are equally important. This recommendation from the UIAA member federation The British Mountaineering Council (BMC) provides vital equipment information that is NOT explicitly addressed in the standard, particularly failure modes of the equipment and recommendations for the use, inspection, maintenance, and retirement of equipment.
HMS Trilock Steel
Description
HMS Trilock Steel by LACD is characterized by enormous stability and maximum safety. Full 45 kN breaking load in the longitudinal direction offer immense safety reserves when climbing and mountaineering. The closure of the galvanized steel carabiner stands for maximum safety and can only be opened with its handy Trilock system by a combination of turning, sliding and folding. When closing the steel carabiner locks the Trilock mechanism independently, thereby reducing dangerous fuse errors. The extremely durable material inspires by a very low wear and allows a long life of the LACD carabiner.
