Do you know what the carabiner is used for in daily life?
Let’s be clear: not every carabiner is for life support—and that’s fine. The humble wire-gate is a Swiss Army knife for gear, not people. Try these:
- Bottle hanger on pack straps
- Clip gloves to your harness or belt loop
- Bear-hang line connector
- Lantern hanger under a tarp
- Camp kitchen bundle (utensils/pot grippers)
- Drying line clips for socks and shells
- Chalk bag clip
- Dog poop-bag dispenser on the leash
- Keys + mini tools (whistle, lighter sleeve)
- Water filter hose management
- Trekking-pole link when packed
- Shoe lace emergency fix (heel loops)
- Trash-out bag clip (Leave No Trace)
- Helmet carry under pack brain
- Stuff-sack daisy chain organizer
- Paddle leash connection for packrafts
- Camera pouch keeper inside pack
- Hat clip in wind
- Micro-pulley redirect for line tension (light loads)
- Bear spray holster tether
- Z-line tarp tensioner hardware replacement
- Collapsible bowl hanger to dry
- Boot gaiter keeper
- Guyline hardware replacement in a pinch
- Travel day bag hook on suitcase handle
Safety note: These are gear uses.
