Kong Harness Carbon Steel Carabiner Straight Gate, Asymmetric

The Kong Harness Carbon is a practical asymmetric carabiner designed for accessory and equipment organization rather than safety applications.

Its carbon steel construction provides a solid and durable feel, while the polished finish gives the connector a clean professional appearance. The asymmetric shape helps keep attached items organized toward the main body of the carabiner.

The straight gate incorporates Kong’s Keylock system, which eliminates the traditional hook at the nose of the connector. This creates a smoother profile that helps prevent snagging when attaching or removing keys, loops, straps or other lightweight accessories.

For a yachting environment, the Kong Harness Carbon can be used as a practical accessory for keys, identification tags, small tools and lightweight equipment stored onboard. As it is manufactured from carbon steel rather than stainless steel, it is best suited to dry or protected areas and should be kept clean and dry after exposure to moisture or salt.

The product is available in Size 6 for compact applications and Size 12 when a larger connector and wider gate opening are required.
