Carabiner NITEIZE SlideLock #3 aluminium orange — lightweight locking karabiner

NITEIZE SlideLock #3 aluminium orange is a lightweight locking carabiner designed for everyday carrying and securing small items. Constructed from aluminium and finished in orange, this size #3 model combines compact dimensions with a SlideLock manual sliding lock for simple, reliable closure. It is intended for non-life-critical uses such as attaching keys, water bottles, straps, and small tools to backpacks, belt loops or gear systems.

Advantages

The SlideLock mechanism provides a positive sliding lock that is quick to engage and resists accidental opening while remaining easy to operate with one hand. Aluminium construction keeps the carabiner light without sacrificing corrosion resistance for typical outdoor and urban use. The compact #3 size offers a balance between capacity and portability, fitting standard key rings and common strap widths. The bright orange finish improves visibility when clipped to bags or gear.

Suitable for

• Attaching keys and key rings

• Organising tools and gadgets on gear loops or belts
• Everyday carry items that require a locking clip

How to use

Slide the locking sleeve to unlock the gate, depress the gate to open, then attach the item or loop and release the gate so it closes. Slide the sleeve back to the locked position for added security. Inspect the carabiner before each use to ensure the gate and sliding lock operate smoothly and there is no visible damage or deformation. Avoid using this product for climbing, load-bearing safety systems, or other critical applications.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, keep the SlideLock mechanism free of dirt and grit; rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly after exposure to saltwater or heavy soiling. Use the carabiner within its intended non-load-bearing roles and replace it if the gate action becomes stiff or the body shows cracks, deep scratches, or bent components.
