Kong Ergo Screw Sleeve Alloy Carabiner

Kong Ergo Screw Sleeve Alloy Carabiner

The Kong Ergo Screw Sleeve Alloy Carabiner is a compact asymmetric screwgate weighing 58 g (2 oz) and holding 27 kN on the horizontal axis. Its shape is built around being easy to handle, which makes it a good fit for smaller hands.

Features and Benefits

Handling is the reason this shape exists. A connector you can grip, orient and lock without looking is safer than a stronger one you fumble, and the Ergo profile is cut to be turned in the fingers rather than wrestled with a full fist.

Moreover, the strength to weight ratio is strong for the size. At 58 g it sits in ultralight territory while holding 27 kN horizontally, 10 kN vertically and 9 kN with the gate open, which is a genuinely useful open gate figure.

Plus, the keylock system removes the notch that catches on rope and bolt hangers. On a long route where you are clipping and unclipping constantly, that is felt every single time.

The screw sleeve is the deliberate choice here. It is slower than an auto sleeve and it demands a habit of checking, but the state of the lock is visible at a glance, which an automatic sleeve does not give you. The connector carries EN 362/B, EN 12275/B, UIAA and EAC approval.

Product-Specific Use Cases

This Kong Ergo Screw Sleeve Alloy Carabiner suits a personal rack where weight matters and you want a locker you can operate one handed. Use it for anchors, belay device attachment and rigging at the Hatta crags and Wadi Bih, and for club and instruction settings where a smaller connector is easier for newer climbers to manage. A screwgate needs a visual check every time, so pair it with the habit rather than assuming the sleeve.
