Rig Carabiners

Rigging carabiners for heavy-duty work in trees

Rigging carabiners are designed for the high loads that occur during the lowering of branches and trunks. They differ from climbing carabiners due to more robust materials, often steel, and higher breaking strength adapted for the dynamic forces of rigging. At Arboristbutiken, you will find rigging carabiners from ISC, CT (Camp), Petzl, DMM, and At Height – manufacturers with extensive experience in working at heights and in trees.

Steel carabiners such as CT Pillar Steel, Petzl OXAN, and ISC Large Steel TG provide extreme strength and long lifespan, and are well suited for rigging systems with brakes, blocks, and port-a-wraps. Models with triple-lock or mechanical locking minimize the risk of unintentional opening under load – crucial when handling large load volumes. Choose carabiner size and gate opening based on rope diameter and block type in your rigging system.

Rigging carabiners are used by professional arborists and tree fellers in all situations where heavy rigging and controlled lowering are required. The right carabiner is part of a well-designed rigging system. We at Arboristbutiken will help you put together a complete and certified rigging kit that suits your working method and the tree sizes you work with.
