A multi-functional, lightweight and high strength carabiner, the Omega Phantom features a hot-forge construction which allows us to remove weight where it’s not needed and add material to boost strength and durability. By utilizing a precise hot forging process, we are able to achieve the perfect compromise between strength and weight. Although hot forging is a more costly and time consuming process when compared to cold forging, the end results are more favorable. The Phantom’s narrow, low profile nose and keylock design allow for smooth, snag-free connections to belay loops, rappel devices, webbing, and gear loops. The ergonomic shape and smooth gate action make this carabiner ideal for use with a gloved hand in fire rescue & water rescue applications. Each carabiner is individually proof loaded and meticulously hand-inspected before leaving our ISO 9001 factory.
