Removable Bar support strip for carabiner - Black - Petzl

BAR removable retaining bar – Petzl

The BAR retaining bar from Petzl is an ingenious accessory designed to optimize the safety and stability of ATTACHE carabiners. By ensuring unidirectional orientation, it promotes loading of the carabiner along its major axis, thereby reducing the risk of accidental lateral loading during belaying or roping up on glaciers.

Unidirectional use for enhanced safety

By positioning itself on the ATTACHE carabiner, the BAR retaining bar transforms it into a unidirectional connector. This configuration ensures that loads are primarily applied along the major axis of the carabiner, providing optimal strength and minimizing the risk of deformation or breakage.

Secure locking limiting errors

The design of the BAR retaining bar incorporates a clever safety mechanism: it can only be closed if the carabiner sleeve is fully locked. This feature significantly reduces the risk of handling errors, ensuring that the carabiner remains secure during use.

Compatibility with ATTACHE carabiners

The BAR retaining bar is specifically designed to be compatible with current ATTACHE carabiners (references M038AA00 and M038AA01) as well as with the older version (M38A SL). This compatibility ensures perfect integration and optimal performance without compromising user comfort.

Ultra-lightweight: only 5 g

Weighing only 5 grams, the BAR retaining bar adds extra safety without adding weight to your equipment. Its lightness makes it an ideal choice for mountaineers and height work professionals concerned with performance and safety.
