Petzl Am’D Twist-Lock is a lightweight and versatile automatic locking carabiner designed for professional rope systems, work at height, rescue, mountaineering and sport climbing applications.
The asymmetrical D shape provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio and efficient loading along the major axis. This design is particularly suitable for attaching descenders, safety systems, harness equipment and positioning systems.
The TWIST-LOCK system is a two-action automatic locking mechanism. To open the carabiner, the locking sleeve must be rotated and the gate pressed.
This allows quick connection and disconnection while maintaining automatic locking functionality.
The Petzl Am’D is designed for easy handling, including when wearing gloves:
The carabiner can be used with the Petzl CAPTIV positioning bar, which helps keep the carabiner loaded along the major axis, limits rotation and improves integration with connected devices.
