HMS Compact
Description
Keylocking HMS carabiner with screw gate closure. The unique rounded design positions ropes perfectly for rappels and creates a very wide gate opening with substantial inner working space. Unlike many belay carabiners, the HMS Compact has no corners so ropes have nowhere to bunch. This results in less friction for smoother rappels and belays and helps helps keep heat in check on long rappels.

-Extremely smooth belay and rappel carabiner with secure screw lock
-Curved spine offers exceptional clearance
-Large opening and keylock nose make clipping ropes and webbing easy

I can say with certainty that the CAMP HMS Compact Locker is always in my kit for rock and alpine climbing. Its large bay allows the rope to feed smoothly for a belay or rappel. The round stock design has no corners, so it’s less likely for ropes to get hung up and load the carabiner incorrectly. It features a wide gate opening so I can clip and unclip easily even while wearing gloves. One of my favorite attributes of this carabiner is the key locking design, allowing me to unclip easily from anchors without the carabiner getting hung up.
