Description
The Petzl CAPTIV is used for two primary reasons. First, it limits the likelihood of rotation when connected to a device or loop. This helps to ensure that the carabiner is loaded on the major axis.
Many users choose these positioning bars to ensure that their carabiner is always attached where they need it. CAPTIV bars are commonly used on lanyards and other gear locations where a dedicated carabiner is an advantage. It is designed for use on OK, Am’D, WILLIAM, OXAN, VULCAN, Bm’D carabiners and the ROLLCLIP A pulley carabiner.
