12 kN Aluminum Utility Carabiner Clips in 3- or 4-Packs with Screw-Lock or Wiregate Options
These aluminum utility carabiner clips provide lightweight attachment points for hammocks, backpacks, keychains, dog leashes, punching bags and compatible camping or gym gear. Aircraft-grade 7075 aluminum combines rust resistance with a listed minimum breaking strength of 12 kN per clip.
Choose a three-pack of manual screw-lock D-shaped carabiners or a four-pack of wiregate clips in the listed color combination. The reviewed locking clip measures 3.15 by 1.89 inches, and source weights vary from 19.87 to 29 grams. The 12 kN rating describes breaking strength, not a safe working load. Verify the selected gate type and application requirements before use, and do not treat utility clips as automatically certified for climbing or personal fall protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many clips come in each option?
Locking variants contain three screw-gate clips, while wiregate variants contain four clips.

It is the listed minimum breaking strength, not the recommended working load for every application.
Can these carabiners be used for climbing?
