KONG HMS CLASSIC SCREW SLEEVE | Aluminum Locking Carabiner

The KONG HMS CLASSIC SCREW SLEEVE is a professional-grade aluminum locking carabiner designed for climbing, technical rescue, industrial rope access, and work-at-height applications. Its classic wide pear-shaped body provides ample internal space for belaying, anchoring, and rope management systems.

Manufactured from high-quality aluminum alloy, the HMS CLASSIC features a manually operated screw-lock sleeve and KONG's Keylock system, which eliminates the traditional snagging tooth at the gate and nose. This smooth connection helps prevent ropes, webbing, and other equipment from catching during attachment and removal.

The wide HMS shape is particularly suitable for belaying with a clove hitch and can be used with compatible anchoring and belaying systems. The screw-lock sleeve provides a secure connection for professional applications where controlled gate locking is required.

Each carabiner is individually tested and manufactured in Italy. Available in five color configurations, the HMS CLASSIC combines lightweight construction, dependable strength, and versatile functionality for professional rope operations.
