RESISTANCE INFORMATION:
According to the CE EN 12275 standard, carabiner breaking resistance must be specified above (with the CE marking and the year of manufacture) according to three values:
- Major axis resistance with gate closed (1)
- Minor axis resistance with gate closed (2)
- Major axis resistance with gate open (3)
For a carabiner, major axis resistance with closed gate (1) is about 2200 to 2500 kilograms, and 700 to 1000 kilograms with open gate (3). For a locking carabiner, the resistance in the major axis closed gate (1) is from about 2500 to 3000 kg, 700 to 1000 kg open gate (3) and 800 to 1100 kg in the minor axis.
