The Rhino's horn prevents belay devices from working their way round the top bar and onto the spine, minimising the chance of cross-loading. The round top bar gives smooth and predictable rope control, while the flat bottom sits well in belay loops, encouraging the Rhino to load in its strongest orientation.
Features
- Round top bar gives smooth and predictable rope control, while the flat bottom sits well in belay loops, encouraging the Rhino to load in its strongest orientation
- Belay carabiners give smooth and confident belaying with tube and assisted-braking belay devices; full section top bars give consistent rope control and reduced rope wear
- Their shape resists flipping into sub-optimal orientations when belaying, acting to ensure the carabiner loads along its strongest axis
- Offset D shape refines the basic D-shape design by extending the top bar, increasing internal volume to improve handling and compatibility with thick ropes and slings
- I-Beam construction provides an optimum strength-to-weight ratio
- Keylock nose eliminates snagging
