Petzl

William Ball-Lock Carbine

A large pear-shaped automatic locking carabiner suitable for many different uses. The shape, size and large opening make it useful for belaying and rappelling with both single and double ropes, as well as for multiple rope and sling placements. William has the Petzl Keylock system to prevent it from getting stuck in loops and other equipment. The Ball-lock locking system provides high security while the carabiner is still easy to open and close, even with gloves. The green button indicates that the carabiner is locked. Ball-lock reduces the risk of accidental unlocking, as it takes three steps to open the carriage (push the green button - turn - open the gate).

New this year, the carbine has an H-profile that makes it lighter than before and the carbine's labelling is protected.
