Xenon HMS Belay is a compact and reliable pear-shaped screwgate HMS carabiner, with an internal belay wire for belay duty. The carabiner is made of lightweight aluminium alloy. It has a pear-shaped design with an I-beam profile to offer an improved strength-to-weight ratio. Designed to offer a large gate opening with high open gate strength and a generous rope bearing radius, the Xenon can comfortably accommodate two clove hitches. The clean nose design helps prevent knots or gear from snagging. The Xenon Carabiner is a durable, reliable partner with easy handling for all styles of climbing. As cross-loaded carabiners have significantly less breaking strength than when loaded lengthwise, Wild Country offers the Xenon HMS in abelayversion with an internal positioning wire for additional protection to ensure that the carabiner always has correct orientation for maximum breaking strength when belaying. All Wild Country carabiners undergo rigorous testing and conform to standards EN 12
