Recently
there has been a lot of confusion regarding airworthiness of paragliding
carabiners from Austrian Alpin. We offer alloy carabiners which resemble the
carabiners from Austrian Alpin in their shape, but these carabiners are free
of any fault and are perfectly airworthy. These carabiners have very precise
tolerance between the gate and the catch, preventing periodical bending
cycles under repeated loads. So no loss of strength is recorded after
prolonged use. The carabiner is made from aircraft quality 7075 Aluminium
Alloy Hot Forged and individually tested. To reconfirm this data, the
breaking strength of carabiners both before and after repeated bending cycle
was tested. Test results showed carabiner before bending carries 2.5
ton and after prolonged use is still good for at least 1,700-1,800 kg.
