Gewicht: 0.1 kg

The Aluminum Carabiner 12kN by Diving Magnets (Pty) Ltd is a professional-grade accessory designed for commercial diving operations. Built with marine-grade materials for long-term durability in demanding subsea environments.

The 12 kN Aluminum Carabiner Screw Lock – D-Shape is a lightweight and durable connector designed for secure attachment in rope access, diving, and general rigging applications. Manufactured from high-strength anodized aluminum alloy, it offers reliable performance while remaining compact and easy to handle. The screw-lock gate provides added security by preventing accidental opening, while the D-shape design helps direct load toward the spine of the carabiner for improved strength and stability. Its compact size and low weight make it ideal for attaching tools, lanyards, and equipment where dependable connections are required. Specifications: Breaking strength: 12 kN / 2645 lb | Gate opening: 14.2 mm | Length: 82 mm | Width: 47 mm | Weight: 27 g | Material: Anodized aluminum alloy | Color: Black | Certification: CE1019.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

What is the actual pull force of the Aluminum Carabiner 12kN underwater?

The Aluminum Carabiner 12kN is rated at its stated rating on a clean, flat, mild steel surface. Underwater, real-world pull force depends on surface condition (rust, paint, marine growth), surface thickness, and contact angle. Expect 50–80% of rated pull on typical subsea steel structures. Always use a 2–3× safety factor for dynamic loads.

How long will the Aluminum Carabiner 12kN last in saltwater?

With proper care — rinsing with fresh water after each use and drying before storage — the Epoxy-HDPE coating protects the neodymium core for 4+ years of regular commercial diving use. The 316 stainless steel hardware is highly resistant to saltwater corrosion. Avoid dropping the magnet on hard surfaces, as impact damage to the coating is the primary cause of premature corrosion.

Is the Aluminum Carabiner 12kN strong enough for commercial diving?

Yes. The Aluminum Carabiner 12kN at its rated pull force is designed for light-duty commercial work including inspections, surveys, and small tool holding. If you regularly work with heavier tools or in strong currents, consider stepping up to a higher-rated model.

What surfaces does the Aluminum Carabiner 12kN work on?

The Aluminum Carabiner 12kN works on any ferromagnetic surface — mild steel, carbon steel, cast iron, and structural steel provide the best results. Performance is reduced on rusty, painted, or curved surfaces. It will not work on aluminium, brass, copper, most stainless steels (304/316), concrete, wood, or plastic.

Can I use the Aluminum Carabiner 12kN for lifting?

No. The Aluminum Carabiner 12kN is designed for horizontal tool holding and equipment staging — not for vertical lifting or rigging. It is not certified lifting gear. For safety-critical applications, always use rated lifting equipment. The magnet is a positioning and holding tool, not a load-bearing device.
