An improvement on a classic keylock carabiner design, the HotForge is built for the rope-side of a quickdraw and delivers smooth clipping and cleaning while its hot-forged, construction keeps it lightweight.
As part of Black Diamond's commitment to innovation and minimizing our environmental footprint, our carabiners are made with UL validated 25% pre-consumer recycled aluminum.
We trust what we make because we use what we make. All Black Diamond products are covered by a two year warranty policy.
At BD, our passion for innovation is only matched by our desire to use our equipment and experience the success it was designed for. From the world’s first wire-gate carabiner to our cornerstone Camalots, we have always designed gear that enables climbers to push the limits of our sport.

"I really like this Carabiner . It’s a lot better than my old one. I keep my car keys house keys, and motorcycle keys on it and I’m gonna be getting my motorcycle tomorrow"
"Black Diamond carabiners are always my goto. Well priced, clean design, and trusted engineering. Hard to beat."
"Excellent shape, smooth gate."
"Simple, sturdy, feels great to clip. 10/10 would get it again."
"Great carabineer, does the job."
"Smooth action"
"I had been using wire gate biners but the "tooth" kept getting caught on my harness. I switched to this type of a carabiner for my draws and they've been wonderful. The bend in the gate gives that little extra tactile cueing that I like and now that there's no "tooth," I don't feel like it's getting caught like my draws used to when trying to unclip from my harness. Would definitely buy again and suggest to friends."
"Awesome key gate carabiner. Solid, relatively light, and snag free."
"Solid carabiner"
"I really like the bent gate. I find it easier and more comfortable to clip this."
