An average biner. The Trango Superflys weight 2/3 of this one, and are almost as large at about the same price. I own both, and the Trangos always go on the rack first.

Comments about Black Diamond HotWire Carabiner - Wiregate:

I've got these on my gear racks as they are easy to use.

They also don't take up alot of space on my gear sling or racking loops of my harness and also come in nice anodized red, which very eye catching.

Very dependable Biners for the money.
