This yates biner is by far the best locker i think money can buy. to my knowedge its the only autolocking keynose biner on the market. to top it off, its stronger and lighter than 90% of the competition. i've swapped them into place for all of my lockers including on the ends of my daisy's for aiding and regularly use them in TR, sport, trad, aid and industrial ropped access and rescue situations. to find them on yates website you need to look in the rescue products, they really should start marketing these more for climbing and they are hard/impossable to find in a local store. i bought mine at moosejaw, they got 20 in the day before and i bought all 20.
