A11098KNB Aluminium Keylock Bent-Gate Carabiner

The A11098KNB is one of three gate options in the A11098 series, alongside a straight-gate and a screw-gate version. This model has a bent solid gate with a 23 mm opening, the widest of the three, and a keylock nose with no hook to snag on bolt hangers, slings or rope during unclipping. It weighs 40 g, and the spec sheet lists breaking strengths of 25 / 8 / 9 kN, the first being the closed-gate major-axis rating.

A bent gate guides the rope into the carabiner, so the A11098KNB is normally placed at the rope end of a sport-climbing quickdraw, with a straight-gate carabiner at the bolt end.

Buyers building draws can pair it with the A11098KNS straight-gate version and should confirm sling width against the carabiner basket. Power Honour can supply the A11098KNB as an OEM or private-label part, with marking and packaging to the brand owner's specification.
