Why Our
Carabiners are the Best in the World
Rock Exotica has
refined the carabiner far beyond the offerings of other manufacturers. Our
carabiners offer features you cannot get anywhere else:
Highest inward
gate/sleeve strength to reduce risk of something levering against the sleeve
and breaking it open.
Widest variety
of lockers – check out our Manual Lock.
Best Autolocks –
we use a pull-down & twist sleeve which is intuitive & easy to use.
Once people try it they never go back.
Widest gate
opening – we use a slightly angled gate opening that is ergonomic & opens
farther.
Specialized
swivel biners, lanyard pin models and more.
USA – All
manufacturing is done at our factory in Utah.

What it is
The ORCA is a
unique autolock sleeve/gate that can be set in the unlocked position. When you
open the gate it is just like opening a non-locker, but the act of opening the
gate “triggers” it and when the gate closes it will autolock just like a
regular autolocking carabiner.
Why it’s good
The ORCA can be
unlocked on your rack for easy access without any of the gymnastics involved in
opening a conventional autolock in tight situations. Then when you clip it in
something it will lock. Or, if you put it in a bolt hanger, tripod head, etc.,
and hold the sleeve when closing it will remain unlocked. Then you can turn the
biner over and install a rope, pulley, etc., just like it was a non-locker, but
when the gate snaps shut it will be locked. When climbing something sketchy, do
you ever want to use a locker for your first placement? Use it for the bottom
biner in a quickdraw and you can simply put the rope in and it will lock when
it closes.
How it’s manufactured
The ORCA was
designed in SolidWorks (3D modeling software). It is manufactured here in Utah
on our 7 axis CNC turning centers. These state-of-the-art machines have two
tool turrets and are actually like two machines in one. There is a separate
program written for each turret. You just have to be careful you don’t violate
that law of physics that says two objects cannot occupy the same space at the
same time. Or it can be very expensive.
Who can use it?
The ORCA is very
versatile but it is not like any other carabiner and you must understand how it
works. It is for experienced, advanced users. Of course, the truth is that
everyone working or playing at height must totally understand their equipment
and techniques or it would be best to find a more sedate activity.
Additional Information:
How it works: The
bottom of the sleeve has a special recess for the rivet head so that when the
sleeve is rotated open (with the gate closed) it will be held in the open
position. When the gate is opened far enough, the sleeve hits the frame and is
pushed up a little so that it is no longer held open by the rivet head. It
rotates a little bit so that it is now acting like a regular autolock and when
the gate is closed it will lock.
There
are several subtle features in the ORCA to accommodate its unique action, for
example it has an asymmetrical frame nose opening due to the height change
between being locked and unlocked (confusing to read about, but you can see
rationale if you closely watch it operate).
Can
you use it like a regular autolocker? Yes, if you don’t set it to the unlocked
position you can just open it like a regular autolock (lift up, twist and open)
and when you let the gate close it will autolock. However, you’ll probably
seldom do this because having it unlocked when not in use is a tremendous
convenience.
Can
you close the gate without having it lock? Yes, if you close the gate while
holding the sleeve so it can’t rotate (as opposed to just letting it go) it
will not lock.
