Affordable HMS carabiner with an easy-to-use twist-lock closure.

Delivery time: 1-3 days

The NRS Nuq Twist Lock is a universally applicable HMS carabiner in canoe security. The Nuq carabiners are NRS' largest carabiners and are therefore perfect for quickly attaching them to the handles of kayaks. The self-locking twist-lock system significantly reduces the risk of accidental opening and getting caught in the carabiner. At the same time, the carabiner can still be opened quickly with one hand. This makes this carabiner the perfect companion in the cowstail and in the directly accessible safety set with a sling.

In contrast to the wire clip version, this carabiner does not require a nose for a secure closure. This means that no ropes or loops can get caught in the nose notch when hanging and unhooking. The Nuq Twist Lock carabiner from NRS is made of anodized aluminum, as is usual in climbing.

The pear shape of the HMS carabiner is designed for the construction of half-mast hitch fuses (HMS). However, the twist-lock security is vulnerable due to the winding of the HMS. Both DAV and SAS therefore recommend positioning the braking hand opposite the snapper - or one HMS carabiner with 3-way lock to use.

Tradition of progress: The first forward strokes, the first roll, the first time on white water - kayaking is a story of progress. Just like the story of NRS. Over the past 47 years, NRS has developed and continuously improved together with our customers and the paddler community: towards better products, better service and a better corporate culture. Since 1972 we have strived to provide you with inspiration, expertise and the best possible equipment for your adventures on the water. Our roots are in Idaho, on and in the rivers of the American West. Our company is now 100 percent owned by the employees. NRS has not only grown to provide equipment to paddlers around the world, but also to help protect free flowing rivers. So it's about more than high quality products and exceptional service. We see ourselves as guardians of our sport, our industry and the environment. With our #JustAddWater campaign, we want to inspire new paddlers to live in and with nature. We are doubling our commitment to the preservation of important river ecosystems - not least because we want to enjoy them for a long time to come. And we are doing everything we can to make our products and processes even more social and sustainable. A new era begins for NRS in 2020. The progress continues.
