Overview

A snag-free HotForge keylock carabiner on top and a redesigned HotWire wiregate on the bottom define this hybrid draw. A Straitjacket insert in the polyester dogbone holds the bottom carabiner in position for clipping.

Sport climbers building a rack get matched draws that combine smooth clipping with wiregate lightness. The bottom carabiner is colored as a visual target, and the listing omits strength ratings and weight.

Who it's for

Sport climbers who want a full six-pack with a keylock top and a wiregate bottom can use them across routes. Anyone who needs published strength, weight or gate opening should check the maker's specifications.

Performance notes

A keylock nose has no hook to catch on a bolt, while a wiregate is light and clips easily. The Straitjacket insert stops the bottom carabiner from rotating, so the clipping position stays consistent.
