| | | Magnetron RockLock 87 grams 24 kilonewtons 7 kilonewtons open gate and minor axis. good solid auto locker. works great either left or right handed. each side locks individually and will hold the gate shut by itself. a bit pricey at $25 but it's it's slick as hell if you ask me. easier then a screw gate or Triact-Lock/Ball-Lock for one handed use. 1 2 3 SD

| | | Here is a review from mountainproject.com Yeah, we got one to fail about 15 minutes after getting them in the shop. Basically, jam simulated rocks and dirt into the underside of the hinges and you'll find yourself unable to open them. We think a paper-clip should come standard with them to clean out the underside of the hinges. Not sure that's going to happen? Just don't use them ice climbing, mountaineering, or any sort of application where you'll be offwidth/chimney climbing. Otherwise, they're great for gym use! Can you say, "Most expensive carabiner ever?" I dig the tech, but there's no way I'm gonna drop $25+ for a single biner. | The others go on to point out how any of their gear that is magnetic attracts all kinds of grit in the dirt that it comes across. I've never had a biner freeze shut on me, and I've put mine through all kinds of nasty crap in-use. I have screwed a screw-locker tight too-hard, but that was my fault, and have had some sticky ones that needed cleaning, but never had to resort to hammers/bolt cutters.
