Carabiners like this can often be found on water bottles or as accessories on keychains,
but if you're heading to the climbing wall or the crag you should make sure that any
carabiner like this should be replaced with a carabiner that's meant for climbing. And
you can tell if a carabiner can be used for climbing because it'll have an official strength
rating either by the CE or the UIAA, and this is just an extra precaution that you should
take to make sure that any climbing tool that you're using is able to hold the weight of
a climber. If you like this tip, go ahead and give us a thumbs up and for more climbing
