LC-205 CK1 Aluminum Screwgate Karabiner 22 kN
Karabiners & Connectors (EN 362)

The PGTEC LC-205 CK1 is an aluminium alloy screwgate D-karabiner certified to EN 362, designed as the everyday connecting link between lanyards, harnesses, anchor slings and self-retracting lifelines in fall-protection systems. Forged from 7075-series aluminium and anodised silver, the body delivers 22 kN along the major axis, 7 kN across the minor axis and 7 kN on the gate, numbers that satisfy the most demanding EN 362 class B requirements for general PPE connectors. The gate uses a smooth threaded screw sleeve that locks by hand twist; the large knurled grip works with gloved hands and gives an audible, tactile confirmation when fully closed. A subtle navy-blue identification band around the spine lets riggers and site inspectors quickly distinguish the 22 kN aluminium unit from steel or smaller karabiners in the same kit. The CK1 is the standard anchor-end connector on the PGTEC EAL1, EAL2 and EAL3 absorber lanyards, and is also sold as a standalone spare for replacing worn or dropped connectors on harnesses, lifeline brackets and roof anchors. Its rounded D-shape keeps the load on the strong spine rather than the gate, and the tapered nose makes clipping into scaffold tubes, rebar eyes and anchor slings fast and one-handed. Every unit is proof-load tested, marked with batch and CE information, and supplied individually in a polybag.
