Semi-circular carbine connector ‘Rapid’ Climbing Technology Q-link HM Steel

Climbing Technology Q-link HM (half moon) Steel - robust D-shaped carbine made of galvanised steel with screw sleeve.
The semi-circular shape ensures that it can withstand high loads in all axes.
It is used for various technical tasks when working at height, as a semi-permanent anchor, etc.
Ideal for use in speleo systems as the main positioning and belaying point.
The special hexagonal sleeve coupling allows for more secure fixation by using hex keys to ensure that the coupling will not open spontaneously even in unforeseen situations, when rubbing against the terrain, etc.
Made of high-strength hardened steel with a galvanised coating to prevent rust formation in wet environments.
