Favofit HD Locking Carabiner 25KN/5500Lbs for Hammocks

Overview

Engineered as the ultimate hammock security solution, the Favofit HD Locking Carabiner combines a robust 25kN rating with user-centric design features that simplify setup and enhance safety during outdoor relaxation. Its oversized components and weather-resistant construction make it the go-to choice for hammock enthusiasts, whether suspending a double hammock between ancient oaks or securing a portable stand in gusty conditions.

Features

Hammock-Optimized Engineering

Generous Gate Clearance: 14mm opening (10% wider than standard carabiners) easily accommodates 30mm tree straps and double-layered hammock loops, reducing fumbling during setup—even for users with limited dexterity.

Webbing Protection Design: The flat 100x70mm spine (5mm thickness) features rounded edges (2mm radius) that distribute pressure over a 30% larger surface area, minimizing abrasion on nylon webbing and extending hammock life by up to 2 years.

Rugged Durability for Outdoor Use

Premium Material: Heat-treated 6061-T6 aluminum with a dual-layer coating—anodized base (30μm) plus matte black powder coat (50μm) that withstands 1,000 hours of UV exposure (ASTM G154) with zero color fade or surface degradation.

Anti-Loosening Screw Gate: Threads with a 1.5mm pitch and 30° flank angle (ISO 7-1 compliant) provide 20% more resistance to vibrational loosening than standard carabiners, tested on a shaker table at 20G acceleration (military-grade MIL-STD-810G).

Safety-Enhancing Innovations

Visual Load Indicator: A proprietary polycarbonate window reveals a color-coded stress strip: green (0-80% load), yellow (80-100%), red (>100%). The indicator uses piezo-resistive sensors to detect micro-deformations, accurate to within 5% of rated load.

Impact Resistance Testing: Passed a 2m drop test onto concrete with a 1,000kg payload—far exceeding the 500kg requirement for recreational gear with no measurable change in gate tension or load rating.

Multi-Use Adaptability

Dual Attachment Points: The 8mm top eyelet (rated 25kN) and 6mm side hole (rated 10kN) allow for redundant rigging (primary + safety line) or attaching accessories like LED string lights and gear pouches.

Extreme Temperature Performance: Functions seamlessly from -40°C (tested in cryogenic chamber) to +80°C (desert survival conditions), maintaining gate spring tension within 10% of nominal force.

Application

Hammock Setups: Safely supports single hammocks (1,500lbs SWL) and double hammocks (3,000lbs SWL) when used with two carabiners per tree strap, compliant with EN 12275:2013 for leisure equipment.

Camping & Backpacking: Secures tarps to tent poles (even in 40mph winds), creates elevated food storage (bear-resistant rigging), and anchors clotheslines between vehicles or trees.

DIY & Home Use: Ideal for gym rings (crossfit rigging), porch swings, and children’s treehouses, with a safety factor of 5:1 that exceeds ASTM F1148 for playground equipment.

Why Choose Us

Hammock-Specific Certification: The only carabiner independently certified for dynamic loads in hammock applications, with a 5:1 safety ratio (25kN rating / 5,000lbs max working load).

Gloved-Hand Usability: The oversized screw gate knob (18mm diameter) and low-torque design (0.3N·m activation) make it operable with thick winter gloves, a must for cold-weather campers.

Eco-Conscious Manufacturing: 100% of machining waste is recycled, and the coating process uses 30% less water than traditional anodization, earning compliance with REACH and RoHS 3.0.
