VULCAN
The VULCAN is a high-strength asymmetrical carabiner with a large capacity. It's crafted from high-strength steel, making it perfect for harsh environments. The large-capacity and asymmetrical shape make it easy to connect multiple items. It comes in two locking systems: the automatic TRIACT-LOCK and the manual SCREW-LOCK. You can also use it with a CAPTIV bar to load the carabiner on the major axis, limit rotation risk, and keep it integrated with the device.
Detailed description
Description
- Made of high-strength steel, it's great for harsh environments, ideal for setting up anchors or connecting to metal structures.
- The large-capacity, asymmetrical shape is super handy for connecting multiple items, especially in multi-anchor systems.
- It has a large opening, allowing connection to thick anchors.
- Easy to handle: a fluid interior design reduces catch points and eases rotation, and the Keylock system prevents involuntary snagging.
- Choose from two locking systems: the SCREW-LOCK with a red band for visual warning when unlocked, and the TRIACT-LOCK with automatic locking and triple-action gate opening.
- Use it with a CAPTIV positioning bar to promote major axis loading, keep it integrated with the device, and reduce rotation risk.

Using the VULCAN carabiner is straightforward. First, decide which locking system suits your needs - the automatic TRIACT-LOCK or the manual SCREW-LOCK. When connecting items, take advantage of its large opening and asymmetrical shape to attach multiple things easily. If you're using it with a CAPTIV bar, just clip it on to promote proper loading on the major axis. As for maintenance, keep it clean and dry. Check it regularly for any signs of wear or damage, especially around the gate and locking mechanism. If you notice anything off, stop using it and get it checked or replaced. Remember, this carabiner is designed for harsh environments, but proper care will ensure it lasts its 3-year guarantee period.
