D - carabiners for climbers

Choosing the right "D carabiner" is important for safety in various outdoor activities, such as mountain climbing, rock climbing or caving. Here are some factors to consider when choosing a carabiner:

Type of carabiner:
- Standard D-shaped carabiner: It is a versatile choice suitable for a wide range of activities.
- Asymmetrical D-shaped carabiner: This carabiner provides a larger opening, making it easier to attach and detach.
Material:
- Aluminium: Lightweight, but may have lower breaking strength compared to steel. Ideal for activities where weight is crucial.
- Steel: Heavier, but more durable and has higher strength. Suitable for demanding activities.
Type of closure:
- Screw closure: Safe and reliable, manual screwing is required to open and close.
- Twistlock: Spring-loaded mechanism for quick and easy one-handed operation, automatically locks when released.
When choosing carabiners, follow the manufacturer's recommendations and instructions for proper use and maintenance of carabiners. Look for carabiners that meet relevant safety standards, such as those set by the International Federation of Mountaineering and Tourism (UIAA) or CE (Conformité Européene).

Only one detail bothers me. The website states that shipping over ‘99 is free. But even though I shopped over this amount, the shipping was not deducted. It's only a small amount - about ‘2, so I didn't deal with it ... But you could fix this error (probably in the program). Thank you

As with previous purchases, the saleswoman was helpful this time too. The store offers the possibility to measure the distance between the sitting bones on an electronically equipped seat and thus determine the correct saddle size. I used this free service for customers, and the employee attended to me without grumbling.

As always satisfied.

There was/is an error in the description of one of the products, which caused me difficulties. A part necessary for the correct assembly of the device was missing, which essentially shouldn't have been there from the factory, but in the product's properties on the website, it is advertised as included in the package. After an agreement with technical support, we resolved this issue; they were very accommodating and fully met my requirements. I can definitely only rate positively, I recommend this store.
