The carabiner D' is the foundation for most climber's' racks-- and to many, trimming ounces from his or her rack is a vital thing to do. So Omega Pacific condensed the weight of the Omega Pacific standard D by a full four grams, yet still provides 24kN of major-axis strength! By employing ISO Cold Forging and a smaller bar stock than Omega Pacific's standard D series, they achieve the ideal middle ground between weight and strength.
