Petzl Omni Carabiner - Screw-Lock | Multi-Directional 15 kN Harness Connector

Overview

The Petzl Omni carabiner is a versatile, multi-directional connector built around a semi-circle profile. Its design supports tri-axial use, helping to manage loads from any direction while you move. The rugged construction and streamlined geometry are intended to stay aligned with your gear, reducing fuss during climbs or harness workflows.

Key benefits at a glance

• Multi-directional loading: The semi-circular shape is designed to withstand a load of at least 15 kN in each of the three principal axes, helping maintain safety even if the carabiner rotates.
• Harness closure: Specifically engineered to join the two attachment points of compatible harnesses like FALCON, FALCON MOUNTAIN, and SEQUOIA, simplifying setup and break-down.
• CROLL attachment: Serves as the ideal connector for installing a CROLL ventral rope clamp flat against the harness for efficient ascending.
• Keylock system: Features a snag-free nose (no hook) to prevent catching on harness loops or webbing during installation or adjustments.
• Locking options: Available in SCREW-LOCK (manual) with a red safety indicator, or TRIACT-LOCK (automatic triple-action) for added security in demanding environments.

Practical use and scenarios

In real-world setups, the Omni carabiner offers a dependable link for harness closures and CROLL configurations, while its rounded profile helps minimize snagging on gear. The combination of a secure locking system and low-profile geometry can support steadier cable management and smoother transitions between movements, whether you’re negotiating a route or performing a system check on a high-tidelity rig.

What to consider when choosing

• Environment and handling: SCREW-LOCK is well-suited for dirty or gritty conditions where manual safety checks matter, while TRIACT-LOCK supports frequent handling without a secondary action.
• Compatibility: Designed for specific harness attachment points and the CROLL system; verify fit with your gear ecosystem before adopting a new workflow.
