KONG FERRATA AUTO BLOCK | High-Strength Aluminum Locking Carabiner

The KONG FERRATA AUTO BLOCK is a professional-grade aluminum locking carabiner designed for technical rescue, industrial rope access, fall protection, and work-at-height applications. Featuring a wide-opening asymmetric body and three-action automatic locking sleeve, the FERRATA AUTO BLOCK provides secure connections for demanding professional rope systems.

Manufactured from high-strength aluminum alloy, the FERRATA AUTO BLOCK features a specially shaped D-profile that provides a generous 26 mm gate opening while maintaining excellent handling and grip. Its design makes it particularly suitable for progression and positioning lanyards, as well as connections to compatible anchors and safety equipment.

The three-action Auto Block sleeve requires deliberate movements to open the gate, helping prevent accidental unlocking. KONG's Keylock system eliminates the traditional snagging tooth at the gate and nose, reducing the likelihood of ropes, webbing, and equipment catching during attachment and removal.

With a major-axis strength of 30 kN, the FERRATA AUTO BLOCK combines high strength, lightweight construction, and secure automatic locking performance. Each connector is individually tested and manufactured in Italy.
