OMEGA PACIFIC is well known for their quality locking carabiners. These are the "old standby" oval 'biners. With a breaking strength of 22kN, they are more than ideal as attachment hardware for leads, etc. They can also make your loop straps much more versatile by offering a way to connect your strap to objects that would otherwise damage your webbing. And, don't forget you need several 'biners to make a z-drag rescue set-up work properly.
