PETZL FREINO CARABINER

The Freino Carabiner by Petzl is biner designed exclusively for rappelling on a single rope.   Made to connect you and your harness to the descending device, and assists in controlling the speed in which you go down.  On one side of the biner there is a clip in point  (braking spur) in which you can run the rope through to create more friction. 

The Freino is an auto-locking carabiner, with a key lock nose and gate, ensuring your absolute safety and efficiency.
