The carabiner is the one most quintessential piece of equipment for rock climbers, keeping a glorious climb from going disastrously wrong.

Different types of carabiners have different properties, whether it's a difference in shape, size, non-locking or locking carabiners , and materials. When it comes to materials, steel, and aluminum are the kings of carabiners. When to Use a Steel Carabiner Steel carabiners are heavier (but stronger) than aluminum carabiners. The average steel carabiner is going to weigh slightly more than twice as much as an aluminum carabiner. This means you could carry maybe 10 to 20 aluminum carabiners comfortably, but that amount of steel is not practical. An aluminum carabiner will hold almost any climber securely. But once you start pushing the weight limit, adding gear , belaying, or performing other unorthodox maneuvers, you really need to add steel to your toolkit. You might add just one or two steel carabiners to your loadout. This should give you the ability to add more than enough support to any rig, no matter what you are carrying or doing. Generally speaking, your base anchor is always a good candidate for a steel carabiner .
