Manesi 10 Pack Mini Titanium Locking Carabiner, Perfect D-Ring for Outdoor and Indoor Use

Obviously, these are not climbing carabiners. But, for keys and gadgets and such these are absolutely great. Plus, being titanium, they will never ever rust.

First, these look really slick. Great as key-rings, accessory holders and the like. 100% non-magnetic. There is some flex to them at the lock. One side is threaded, the other is not. The side without threads can pop out - there's about 1/8" of rod inserted in the lock. If you do manage to pull it out it can be reinserted, and if there are keys on the clip, they won't fall out.But honestly this limits their use to really light items and that's a shame. A large water bottle will start to pull it apart. If I connect two together I can pull them apart with some effort. It would have been so easy to add a manufacturing step and roll the end in the lock or flatten it a bit.So - for keys, a small flashlight or folding knife and so on, these are nice. For anything heavier, no.

I'm seriously into titanium gear and couldn't resist ordering these. They do have that titanium awesomeness, but I wouldn't rely on them for much more than being a keychain or tethering light stuff. As with all carabiners, the weakness is at the opening and that knurled brass piece is not a strong element. The test: suspend a 45lb plate - it passed. Next test, drop a 10 lb plate a few feet, this carabiners to arrest the fall - it failed. The threaded connection was OK, the other end popped free.Sooo, this thing probably won't hold if you're bouncing a gallon water bottle off it for a while. However, that's a lot to expect from a little clip like this. It will certainly stand up as a key ring or dangling something that only weighs a couple pounds. Something like a knife on a paracord tether would be fine.In the end, I'm giving them five stars because they are such nice ->light use<- carabiner clips.

These are nice looking keychain loops. The threads are excellent quality and super smooth. Unfortunately the unthreaded side isn't supported by the closure nut. This means the strength of the loop is always the strength of the open loop of Ti wire. They're pretty stiff but can be pulled open with around 20lbs of force.

These are great looking and very affordable carabiners. They give the appearance of titanium with the flat dark grey finish and ultra lightweight feel. That’s really were the similarity to titanium end though. Don’t expect these to be heavy duty by any stretch or likely hold up in the long run. They are represented as an alloy and feel as such. You can absolutely bend them shut or in half by and with an open gate if you wanted.For a keychain, backpack, diaper bag, edc tool, etc though they are absolutely awesome. The screw closure is a little “grindy” and I couldn’t multi-purpose one in a pinch for an emergency or heavy duty situation but they will hold a water bottle, hat, light, or other knick-nack from the roll bar of the jeep just fine!
