Anyone who knows the mountain sports equipment manufacturer AUSTRIALPIN from the Stubai Valley knows that development and innovation are very important there. Keeping your feet still is definitely not an option there! AUSTRIALPIN has once again reached deep into its bag of tricks and is now presenting the new HMS RONDO Slide-Autolock - the fastest autolock carabiner in the world! What's new?
The tried-and-tested AUSTRIALPIN RONDO HMS carabiner is currently available with many different closures - and now also with the new Slide Autolock closure. Anyone who has ever almost fallen asleep while locking a screwgate carabiner will quickly understand why AUSTRIALPIN has developed the HMS RONDO with Slide Autolock: No more awkward screwing, no more annoying lifting and turning! Zack - it takes less than half a second to open the Slide-Autolock fastener, which not only impresses with its speed, but also with its simple handling, while still offering a high level of safety. It couldn't be better!

How does it work?
Quite simply! The Slide-Autolock can be easily opened with a finger on the recessed brass slider - and quickly locked again by releasing the latch. The lock is designed in such a way that it cannot be opened by pressure against the catch, vibration or manipulation by the rope. The Slide-Autolock is child's play to operate and, in keeping with AUSTRIALPIN's philosophy, 100% Made in Tirol!
Models
The HMS RONDO Slide-Autolock is available in 5 different versions:

FISH - without OMEGA-3, but with Slide-Autolock
AUSTRIALPIN doesn't do things by halves, which is why the Tyrolean company has also updated its FISH and GOLD FISH belay devices - they are now also available with Slide-Autolock carabiners with SELFIE anti-twist protection. This makes handling even easier while maintaining the same level of safety, making the set ideal for children too.
