Carabiner crud

[junglist]

Hi chaps.

 

What do you guys do to clean the crud out of your carabiners? Got some twist lock crabs that no longer shut properly.

Don't fancy retiring them as they're not cheap

 

 

 

 

Thanks,

I have a paraffin bath in the workshop, blow them through with the air line and graphite.

 

You could use a can of WD or similar instead of the paraffin bath.

Gt-85 for some reason I cant remember and not wd40

Pour some juice on them, preferable sugar free diluted kiora and wipe them on your t shirt, that's the way I Loler mine every 6 months whether they need it or not:)

that gt85 is good stuff, I use it on every thing.

 

cheap to at about £2.50 a tin

Rinse, blow and repeat then liberally lube with graphite powder, I find anything oily cause them to jam up again sooner.

I tend to use only Petzl or Rock Exotica biners as the are reliable a and easy to maintain.
