Hold rope more securely than nonlocking and slide-release carabiners. While these carabiners are not as secure as screw-locking carabiners, they are easier to open.

Pull down/twist 90°/push in and lift up/twist 90°/push in carabiners are more secure than twist 90°/push in because they require an extra step to open.

Zinc-plated steel carabiners are mildly corrosion resistant. Aluminum carabiners are more lightweight and resist corrosion better than zinc-plated steel. Anodized carabiners offer excellent corrosion resistance. Stainless steel carabiners have excellent resistance to salt water and chemicals.

Styles 3 and 7-13 have either a removable eye pin or eyelet that secures rope to one end of the carabiner to prevent it from sliding or moving.

Carabiners with an offset latch open to the side, giving you more space to attach large items.

Carabiners with a locking indicator have a symbol that is shown when the carabiner is fully locked.

Carabiners that meet ANSI/ASSP Z359.12 have been tested for use in fall protection systems.
