Paralock 3 Charly carabiner hook

The ideal carabiner for paragliding

When activating the rescue parachute in paragliding, the wing may impede its opening or affect its performance. These factors can alter the descent rate specified by the manufacturer. Furthermore, in strong wind conditions, tandem landings can present challenges for controlling your wing. Choose Charly's Paralock 3 carabiners to overcome these challenges.

Paralock 3 highlights:

• Enhanced safety: Allows you to disconnect the glider after an emergency parachute deployment.
• Versatility: Ideal for handling in strong winds and for emergency water landings.
• Durability: Designed to last, without the common problems of equipment fatigue.
• Intuitive operation: Safe operation with an additional locking option.
• Installation: Adapts easily and without twisting to most harnesses.
• Convenience: Eliminates the need for a cutting knife.
• Technical features: Impressive breaking load of 28 kN at a featherweight of 75 g.

High-quality materials for extra strength

The Paralock 3 is a feat of engineering, forged from robust Titanal. Its steel parts are made of hardened chromed steel, while its plastic parts are made of oil- and wear-resistant POM. What's more, its pivoting lever features a hard-anodized coating for minimal friction.

Finally, where other carabiners show signs of fatigue, the Paralock 3 shines. Its snug-fitting latch considerably reduces dynamic stress in flight. It has triumphed in fatigue tests, and its recommended lifespan in mono paragliding is 8 years, and 5 years in bi.
