Black Diamond Positron Anodized Carabiner

Brand : Black Diamond
Item : BLD0610

Black Diamond designed the Positron Anodized Carabiner to bring the anti-snag benefits of a keylock biner to the ‘working class' climber. There simply isn't another keylock biner on the market that can rival the Positron in terms of quality, design, and value. This season the Positron features a solid (non dual-trac) keylock gate, an anodized body…and a lower price. The Positron's keylock nose doesn't snag on pro, ropes, or slings—which translates to easier clips and reduces the chance of open-gate failure. Plus, cleaning overhanging routes is a breeze with the Postiron. The functional shape of the Positron makes it easy to hold, and its bowed back, smooth action, and deep basket add up to make this the most versatile clipping, racking and anchoring biner ever. Bent and straight gate versions available.–Vendor

Black Diamond Positron Anodized Carabiner



My new workhorse biner
If you're looking for a do-it-all biner, I recommend the Positron. Of course the keylock gate is crucial. While it's not the least expensive biner out there, it's worth the price for sure. Stock up on these.


One tough biner.
I used this biner at my local climbing gym and I like it. With the bent gate I found it much more easy to clip in and out of the rope. Gate action is smooth also.


Works well enough
I use these little things as additional tool hooks, and for that purpose they work nicely. I generally carry two: one for my knife and one empty in case I'll have to hang something into it fast. They also act as a nice little backup for climbing, especially in icy/snowy conditions. When the primary carabiners have their rollable locks frozen useless I'll take one of these off my belt and switch to using it.


key lock
I love the key lock feature it makes clipping and unclipping easier as they don't snag as much. I have these on my draws as the carabineers that clips to bolts and protection.
