SOB Carabiner Caribeener Clips Heavy Duty Large Alloy Steel D Ring Shape Locking Carabiner for Hammock,Keychain,Outdoor,Camping,Hiking,Dog Leash Harness

Probably not the intended use of this product, however we used it to hang a large mma punching bag. It has worked great so far.

I bought them just to hang stuff off my pack. They are a bit overkill for that, but will def do the job. Good to have in case I ever actually need to use them with rope. If you are just looking for an accessory type carabiner, this is more than you need.

These things are HUGE! and almost as big as your hand, but exceptionally well made. The d-ring shaped carabiners from SOB are built to last, and you can handle tough jobs with aplomb. The twist-to-lock feature is easy to control even one-handed, and will come in handy in those tight situations when things get tricky. I consider these to provide incredible value for your money considering that theyre not the typical cheap and flimsy carabiners found in most big-box retail stores. This powerful set of two made of 7075 aircraft aluminum alloy, will stand the test of time. This is a 5-star product that I would buy again.

This is a very well made clip. I have not seen any deformities after load bearing (my personal safety rule is to never exceed ,70 of rated weight capacity). These are great for use around ok around the house, garage and campsite.

This is the ultimate Carabiner for so many uses in general--and perfect for my specific use with my Resistance Band workouts. I have a variety of different size carabiners for use with resistance bands; some that came with the sets (small and nowhere near as strong) and others that were bought separately. This is the biggest and best of all and can easily be used when combining several tubes or bands together. In addition, it can fit, (flat, with no twisting of the band) the thickest, heaviest resistance band I have, which is 2 wide--and using this carabiner is so much easier than the usual method of wrapping or looping the band around the door anchor. The last pic shows the different sizes I use for different purposes, with the one Im reviewing in the center for comparison. In addition, it has a great single twist locking mechanism that is so much easier to use than, for instance, the black one on top in the last pic, which uses a screw tightening mechanism. Thats ok but its a bit of a pain to use. The lock on this one is very secure and the rated weight load, although WAY more than I need for my main use of it, is very welcome should I need it for any of the other many places this can be used as stated in the info given on the Amazon product page. Great carabiner, recommended.

These puppies are heavy duty. Going to work well for me.

This carabiner is definitely large and I wouldnt use this as a keychain, its just too big. I can see myself using it to hold heavy items for sure. I use a smaller carabiner for my keys and its just perfect. The locking mechanism is nice as Im able to use one hand to lock and unlock the carabiner.

I really like these carabiners for their size and load rating. It fits perfectly in my hand so that I can hold it and loosen or tighten the gate lock with one hand. They are a nice manageable size, about 3 x 4, and have an incredible load limit of just under 6300 lbs when loaded longwise, and 1575 lbs when loaded against the gate. They feel very solidly made but with a light weight feel being made of aluminum. The gate has a good responsive spring that snaps the gate shut when opened and released. The gate lock rolls smoothly to engage and disengage it and has a knurled surface for a good gripping surface. Very smooth constructed body on the carabiner with no sharp edges or points that could catch and fray a rope. I do not climb, but I will be using these for lifting and holding heavy objects in my workshop. Overall I am impressed with the quality of these carabiners and can find no cons to share at this time.

Im not an avid climber, so maybe Im unfamiliar with the language used here -- but Im frustrated these are the twist several times to (un)lock not the quarter turn twist to (un)lock. I feel like the description implied these were the quick & easy quarter-turn rather than the screw-lock. Ill find a use for these, but Id find more uses if they were more convenient to open.

These are solid and well made.
