Grivel Sigma K8G Twin Gate Carabiner
Sigma K8G Twin Gate Carabiner
The Sigma K8G is a D-shaped carabiner ideal for use when belaying or for personal anchor systems, while also coming in handy on quickdraws when you want to assure a closed gate on hard pitches with high whipper probability. Hey, we've all been there.
The twin-gate wiregate system makes the Sigma safer and faster than other biners by avoiding accidental openings due to rock contact, incorrect rope passage, etc. Two openings also allow greater resistance. Finally, it maintains its functionality over time and scoffs at the presence of dust, mud, and ice. The gate-wire combination also facilitates its use with gloves and allows you to easily attach all types of devices.
