MODELS

The HMS RONDO Slide Autolock is available in the colors green-azure, purple-black and all-black. In contrast to the green and purple carabiner, the all-black version is hard-coated.  Thanks to its double strength and higher base-hardness, this coating offers higher robustness and therefore a much longer lifetime of the carabiner and rope, which makes it perfect for frequent use. In addition, the all-black version comes with a uniqe identification number [ID], which makes traceability for qualified inspections easier.  

The HMS RONDO Slide Autolock with SELFIE twist protection, which keeps the carabiner in place on the belay loop, makes the HMS RONDO the ideal carabiner for the use on a harness. It is available in the colors green-azure and all-black. Again the all-black version is hard-coated for a longer lifetime of the carabiner and rope.

In line with our philosophy, the HMS RONDO Slide-Autolock is 100% made at our production site in Austria.
