KONG Ovalone DNA Alu Auto Block Carabiner | Helical Aluminum Connector
The KONG Ovalone DNA Alu Auto Block is a specialized aluminum alloy carabiner with a helical, twisted body for applications that require off-axis equipment orientation. Its unique geometry lets connected devices, including descenders, rope clamps, and fall arresters, rotate 90 degrees to optimize positioning and operation.
The connector features a three-action Auto Block locking sleeve that requires three deliberate movements to open. Its oval configuration, circular-section body, and Keylock design provide a versatile connection for compatible climbing, rope access, and technical rescue equipment.
With a 24 kN major-axis strength rating, 8 kN minor-axis strength, and 19 mm gate opening, the Ovalone DNA Alu combines specialized connector geometry with lightweight aluminum construction.
Made in Italy, the connector weighs just 80 g and comes in Black, Green, Orange, and Red.
