Product description
Lightweight HMS carabiner with Triple Lock closure
The HMS Bulletproof Triple FG Eco from Edelrid is a lightweight yet robust HMS carabiner that is truly tough, closes securely and is especially suitable for use with belay devices.
Low weight, high load capacity and maximum safety
This carabiner features a lightweight H-profile construction and is equipped with a steel insert at the apex for extra resistance against wear and tear. The Triple Lock closure with Keylock system requires three movements to be opened and thus ensures maximum closure security. A wire clip holds the HMS Bulletproof Triple FG Eco securely in position and prevents it from twisting.
The highlights at a glance:
- Efficient weight saving thanks to H-profile design
- Extra locking security due to Triple Lock system
- Integrated wire clip prevents twisting

What do you think about that?
This is what other customers say:
Doesn't work with the grigri+ as it seems to grab on the steel insert in cross-loading situations, and the carabiner just seems to catch on the grigri+ a lot. Also doesn't work with the megajul as the carabiner is too thick for that scenario too.
The gate unlocking action may be good or bad in your use case -- you MUST push up before twisting, as twisting while pushing up requires more force while pushing up. Maybe that's just an issue with the eco though.
The ACL is very strong though. Much better than the carabiner it was intended to replace -- an austrialpine ronda
Ended up just going on my PAS instead
