Rock Exotica super-strong “D” carabiner. Slightly angled gate for ergonomics and a wider gate opening. Now with the ORCA gate. The new O.R.C.A (Open Regular Close Auto) Locking System design opens just like a non-locking biner, but closes with the security of an auto-lock carabiner. ORCA stands for open regular/close auto.
