The DMM PerfectO Screwgate Oval is a compact and symmetrical oval locking carabiner designed for climbing, rope access, and technical applications. Its streamlined oval profile keeps the connector small while meeting relevant EN standards, making it a practical choice when equipment size and weight need to be kept to a minimum.
The PerfectO uses DMM’s I-Beam construction selectively in areas that do not bear rope loads, while the rope-bearing sections feature a full-round profile. This design helps provide smooth rope contact and can contribute to increased longevity for both the carabiner and rope.

Compact Symmetrical Oval Design
The DMM PerfectO Screwgate Oval features a compact, symmetrical oval shape that provides balanced positioning of connected equipment. Its small profile makes it useful for applications where reducing bulk and weight is important.
Full-Round Rope-Bearing Areas
DMM uses I-Beam technology only where the carabiner does not bear against the rope. The rope-bearing areas retain a full-round profile, providing a smooth contact surface designed to reduce unnecessary wear and help extend the working life of both the connector and rope.
Keylock Nose for Smooth Connections
The Keylock nose is designed to provide snag-free operation when clipping ropes, slings, and other equipment. This clean interface makes connecting and removing equipment smoother and more convenient during technical use.
Captive Bar Option
The DMM PerfectO Screwgate Oval is available with a captive bar option for applications where keeping connected equipment positioned correctly is important. This can help prevent unwanted movement of the connected device within the carabiner.
