KONG ERGO TWIST LOCK | High-Strength Aluminum Locking Carabiner

The KONG ERGO TWIST LOCK is a compact, lightweight aluminum locking carabiner designed for professional climbing, technical rescue, industrial rope access, and work-at-height applications. Featuring an ergonomic asymmetric D-shaped body and two-action automatic twist-lock sleeve, the ERGO provides secure connections while maintaining excellent handling and maneuverability.

Manufactured from high-strength aluminum alloy, the ERGO features a distinctive bent D-shaped profile that improves handling and gate accessibility. Its compact dimensions and slim construction make it particularly suitable for users with smaller hands and applications where equipment space is limited.

The two-action Twist Lock sleeve requires rotating the sleeve before opening the gate, providing automatic locking without the need for manual screw-locking. KONG's Keylock system eliminates the traditional snagging tooth at the gate and nose, helping prevent ropes, webbing, and other equipment from catching during attachment and removal.

With a 27 kN major-axis strength and a weight of just 65 grams, the ERGO TWIST LOCK combines strength, portability, and dependable performance. Each connector is individually tested and manufactured in Italy.
