The pear-shape geometry of Xenon Tri-Lock is weight, strength, and durability optimized, and the specially designed Keylock nose makes it easier to remove stuck knots such as clove hitches. The wide pear shape allows for secure rope management, making it ideal as a center anchor point on multi-pitch climbs. The addition of the autolocking Tri-Lock mechanism increases safety, making it so you cannot forget to lock the carabiner. The Xenon Tri-Lock is also available with a wire keeper to ensure the carabiner stays in the correct belay position and prevents cross-loading.
