The new Atlas is notable for its superior strength-which approaches the strength of some steel carabiners, but at a fraction of the weight-and its oversized design which makes rigging easy, even while wearing gloves. This combination of strength and ease of use makes it an ideal carabiner for search and rescue applications.
