Why did the manufacturer paint over their ratings?

- We tested quite a few paramotor carabiners and learned a lot about where the strength comes from and why climbing carabiners aren't square. Some of our tests where we pulled them diagonal show how you could get half the strength if your straps aren't wide, the reason for the square design. Our next follow up video will include fatigued aluminum since that is another concern.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this

Thank you so much for this, I fly paramotors and I was point loading the bottom corner of my carabiner with softlinks. Thanks for making me safer!
Respect for this guy for donating. We all love and appreciate the content, but not all can afford to donate.
Glad it helped. Thanks for the donation!
Clearly we need you out on a paramotor with a linescale to check the expected loads
Make sure Scetchy Andy is hanging off the bottom with a parachute to do the world's first "base jump from paraglider"
”Worlds first” LoL that been done s zillion times for atleast 20 years or more…
@andrebandarra has a load measurement device for paragliding, could be a nice collab 👍🏼
Just send one to tucker gott
A guide at an adventure company I was working at dropped three brand new aluminium carabiners about 100m onto rocks. No visible damage but we tested them all. They were all rated at 30kN, two broke at around 10 - 15kN and one failed at 1.2kN.
We did the same test with steel carabiners that had also been dropped (this time deliberately) and they all deformed at around their rated strength. We found every time aluminium breaks suddenly whereas steel deforms, the gate pin breaks and they slowly bend. Even a bent one is still strong enough to hang on. The company went to all steel carabiners the next day!
For personal use when you know the history of your gear aluminium is great, but when used from a common gear pool where you don't know what happened to it yesterday steel is the only logical choice.
But warning, stainless steel is less predictable! It can work harden and break suddenly.
Aluminum also has a finite fatigue life -- all fatigue adds up until eventually it fails, even if that is a very long time. Steel fatigue under a certain threshold doesn't add up, and thus lower the time/fatigue cycles to failure. (One reason for the inspection and replacement cycles on airplanes -- it's designed for it obviously, but makes fatigue engineering and maintenance very important.) (EDIT: Sorry, I typed that before he talked about it in the video.. :)
Aluminum carabiners - you can use it for holding less important items than your life. I use one as a keyring on the belt to avoid having my keys cutting up my pockets.
Stainless steel does Work harden, but you already have to be at yield stresses to do so. So if it’s never opened up or has obvious peening on the surface it’s not hardened. It’s not something that can happen “invisibly”
@@geekswithfeet9137 Carabiners and stuff yes but we had some stainless steel wire ladders that some idiot thought would be useful in a commercial cave trip we were offering. The wire broke at where the rungs had been swaged on where the bit that could flex met the bit that couldn't, typically a quarter of a millimetre in to the swage. The only way you could visibly examine it was to flex it and look for any broken strands, but flexing it only hurried up the work hardening.
The other nasty one was a stainless steel threaded pin glued in and an eyebolt on it for a rope anchor. Another idiot had installed it and found it was a bit too long so put a nut on the pin under the eyebolt. As people abseiled on it you could see it flexing back and forth. I was a bit worried so cut it down so the shoulders of the eyebolt sat squarely in the rock. And I backed it us as well!
@@mirandahotspring4019 oh yeah completely different story with wire rope. You can get swaging systems that have bell-end entries to spread the strain over a larger radius.
I know nothing about paragliding/para-motoring but the takeaway I got from this episode is that these folks should stop trying to reinvent the wheel with these oddly shaped carabiners and just use steel quicklinks.
For real man, those mallions are tested by decades of use across tons of industries.
I was wondering about using a backup loop of something like dyneema
But they are heavy and hard/cumbersome to open, and most pilots diconnect their wing after every flight. Some Hike&Fly Pilots moved to Softshackles and leave their wing and harness connected, but some already are moving back to something like the Edelrid Ease (19G with a Locking Insert). And they usually use more narrow webbing as risers, compared to PPG wings
Seems like itis only an issue if they are using straps that are too skinny though. Probably want your wide, flat straps to not be bunched up with a normal shaped quick link or carabiner?
@@mrdumbfellow927 They make quick links of every shape, not just the ones we see in climbing
I bet those AirXtreme biners had a 7000 series aluminum in the locks when they were rated and somewhere along the way someone decided that 6000 series is close enough.
Ryan needs to find a friend with an XRF machine for alloy analysis!
It's amazing how many people over such a wide range use ropes an clips an pins,.
Rock climbers, tree fellers, sailers, fisherman, SeaMen, airmen, really bringing us all together Ryan, thank you my man 👍👍👍
Ryan is like a giant sexy bumble bee, he goes flyin 'round cross pollinating all the sports
Only difference one is a hobby other a job. Soon as you get into working environment the equipment change substantially. Aluminum is avoided like a plague, you rarely see much color and ratings are part of the equipment and not painted. Dont know about USA but in Europe there is a second layer as these kind of equipment come with certification from government oversite. Without it you cant use is in work and even end up in jail for reckless endangerment using uncertified gear.
@@scasnywell I commercially fish lobster and other critters, an I'm a big user of the 3twist rope, this is all very interesting stuff the braided ropes
Would be cool to use a linescale to measure the actual forces while paramotoring!
I sense a new crossover episode happening.

@andrebandarra has a neat setup to measure these 😉
i sense the results would be underwhealming
Another great video, Ryan. Your content calls to mind the importance of scientific TRANSPARENCY. Something is lost when we are lulled into trusting the results of opaque testing which is doubly suspect when there may be questionable incentives, or when a company is performing their OWN tests. I think your passion and thoroughness are doing more to promote scientific literacy than many programs designed for that purpose...Keep it up!
That's why mammut is such a champ showing their testing machines working on youtube
Hi Ryan!
On ratings- the paragliders themselves are tested to 14kn or more under the EN926 tests! Carabiners that break lower are the weak-point in the whole system.
I'd be very happy to do a video (if there's interest) exploring what the attachment points for the wing and reserve parachute look like, and give a closer look at materials (dyneema, kevlar, nylon etc) for the whole system. Often there's protective arrangements to prevent carabiners moving around or angle-loading on the harness side. On the wing side of the connection though, I think more research is needed, as different wings can have lightweight risers that do not occupy the width of the carabiners.
I'm exceptionally grateful for all the learning from your channel. For example brummel-splicing dyneema and kevlar has been super-useful for gear repairs in the field, but I've learned so much also about softlinks and quicklinks and a lot of the other bits of hardware we use.
Thanks!
Paramotor wings are rated to only 5.25G under the DGAC certification. EN certified paragliders are rated to around 8G (within the certified PG weight range only) and acro wings are a bit higher at 12G. It would be **extremely** difficult and unlikely to achieve anywhere near 14kn of force. We are talking about a very heavy pilot doing serious acro on an acro paraglider. Also there are two carabiners (not just one). Achieving 14kn of force would have much more interesting consequences because not only would other things fail (swing arms, frame attachments), there are **no** paramotor harnesses that are rated for anywhere close to those loads.
Yes, please!
I have seen people have cascades that ripped the lines out the glider.
So yes, very high Gs are very possible.
That would be a great video!
Is there a safer alternative to caribeners? I'll check your page out! 😊
Tucker isn't exactly the pinnacle of safety and good ideas. 😂 Just ask Dell Schanze. Video attached unless links are censored...
ruclips.net/video/KqMgmHZYZHY/видео.htmlsi=VxrqvHfp7lspWqsC
Bummer, you don't have any videos yet. Please let me know when you do! Have a wonderful week! 😊
In electronic manufacturing, chain of custody is required for quality if parts aren't bought from an approved distributor or the manufacturer directly. Seems like the same philosophy would apply here. There's a reason manufacturers don't buy microcontrollers from amazon. ;-)
I don't climb or use a paramotor but I love this channel.
I used to teach high school chemistry and physics. I think I love the testing methodology the most about this channel.
There has to be someone who knows someone who can get this guy a high speed camera. Would be fun to see exactly how stuff comes apart!
I knew it was going to be a fascinating video when I saw you had a pile of the exact same thing.
Any time a test needs that much repetition, something is being learned, and that's why I'm here!
This channel steered me towards soft shackles forever. I had an old chunk of synthetic winch cable and made a few up. They fit so nice in a pocket. Easy to set up even wearing gloves , no potential metal flying around and not had one even come close to fail. Right from the beginning of the video all I could think of is why they wouldn't use them as a back up to the carabineers or instead of for a paramotor.
Before doing the pull tests, make sure to do some NDT (non destructive testing). Dye penetration test would be suitable for finding fractures.
I run soft shackles (5mm dyneema with a button knot that i learnt on this channel) as my main PG attachments. Reason being is you can't cross load them, they're not susceptible to fatigue, they're lighter than the alu or steel equivalent and should have way more strength than needed.
Just wish i had a line scale and a slacksnap setup to proof load them 😅
"Did they get the right aluminum in the vat..." to then forge the carabiners? That's important, but it's only part of what is required to manufacture reliable life-safety gear. "Real" gear manufacturers pull random samples from their production runs, do testing like this, then use statistical analysis to confirm that each batch is performing up to spec (along with lots of other critical steps and checks!)
quality control is everything in mass manufacturing. At the same time, though, the real killer for all aluminum casting is porosity. Dissolved gasses form bubbles when cooling, and create tunnels as the liquid / solid boundary moves when the part solidifies. In a car engine this can mean coolant or oil leaks in a visibly good engine, or in load bearing parts, extreme reduction in max load before failure. The bubbles can become quite large when no degas methods are used. I've seen fluxes and nitrogen bubblers used to degas the metal. The porosity I'm most familiar with is microscopic, which has just as big an impact on structural integrity as the large voids.
Mildly related note: I've noticed a theme of goods and zero liability Chinese goods. An easy hint is names you genuinely believe are made up (because they are). They make a brand, let it get threatened with lawsuits, fold up that name and do a new one. If anything happens to you or your stuff, good luck tracking down the company to sue because they won't exist. This is a feature, not a bug.
It's no surprise to me they'd simply paint over old stock and print something on top. I am not sure how to help consumer awareness as most consumers mind their wallet over their common sense, but niche things like this definitely shine a light on areas some might not presume this practice occurs in. I am grateful for your work!
Thanks! This weekend doing Acro, I landed in my wing and the forces on my harnes after the rescue opening was AT LEAST 1500 kg ripping some of the stitching on the harness and some metal pieces (which is plenty strong enough in normal situations). with a normal harness i would likely have fallen out of it, but this one had backup straps behind. my friend say that I pulled 17G's when the rescue opend..
this again adds the question about the carabineers/softies used between harness and rescue.. but this should be more simmelar to climbing..
also, doing tumbling, its normal to pull higher G's than 3.. usually about 4 when in infinity and close to 7G's in entry.
Thanks for the work you do!
Should see how webbing acts when left flat like on one of these square carabiners versus in the curve of an oval carabiner or something like a d-oval. I'd bet that those square profiles don't help at all, and in fact are worse since even fat webbing might slide to the gate side.
"but if you pull webbing into a curve, it is weakened", yeah, well, there might be a reason why climbers normally use tubular webbing. Don't skimp on the quality of safety-critical gear.
@@Alastair510 that's not the reason, and is debatable as a statemement to begin with. I see Non tubular slings and cordalette used way more often, and they can the same or better strength properties.
I'm sure non-tubular can have the same strength, but tubular has a couple of advantages:
1) for the same width webbing you are getting twice as much material.
2) when in a curve, it tends to 'roll' up and evens out the strain, (rather than stressing the edges)
@@tylerlego41
Thanks, great episode! I do paragliding (not paramotor) many gliders use soft shackels instead of carabiners for weight saving. Also many gliders got regular Edelrid locker carabiners coming with the wing.
Side note, pls hook up 2 linescales to the raisers of a paraglider, do spirals and se How much force you get!!! Would be a FIRST in paragliding history and very exciting to see!
Ryan chasing rabits is what i am here for. So pumped for the damaged caribiner break test!!!
Thanks, Ryan and Tucker.
Wonderful, in-depth testing of so many combinations.
Bravo!!!
Thank you so much for this video, I use soft links to connect my carabiner to my paramotor so I point load the low side of my carabiner. This video shows that I need to change it so it is using a full width webbing. Thank you!
Paramotor or not - harness needs to hold a man. Good collab.
Thanks, Ryan. Great episode.
What a great video, perfect format
Great episode 😊
Don’t fly but watch Tucker
Wish I had more time to Climb but live vicariously though you both. Hope to see sum fall Big wall living footage soon 😊
Absolutely ecstatic about this rabbit hole! Every tested variable and every result just lead to another question; I've got to watch tis again..
By an incredibly wide margin one of the most important and useful channels on RUclips.
Super Excellent, thanks!
Gold for those who depend on these! Well done.
Coffee and watching stuff break.... happy Wednesday.
A great video Ryan !
Great video, love your testing. I totally need to add "undundant" to my vocabuary.
Best advice was just to add a backup 👍
Finest Chinesium, terrifying stuff.
Very cool video. I've done more than my fair share of mechanical testing and nothing beats actually running samples.
I don’t do much climbing or paragliding, but I do trust my life to fall protection at fairly extreme heights (150-200 feet). I can’t say I’ve ever seen a gate retention system with such little interference as those air xtreme ones.
Thanks!
You should do machinist 4 part die Crack detection on the stressed aluminum
super interesting, thanks for the vid. Still digesting the information. I've always stuck with the alu that is supplied with my harnesses, but maybe I should replace them more than I have.....but maybe its also time to learn soft links.
Awesome content, tack
Hi! Thanks for the subject! You could also test the Maillon Rapide Delta (often 3,5mm - 4mm) used for line attachment to risers: These are very exciting to watch open up and/or deform in flight (i.e. when not properly closed... especially exciting when it is a middle A-line: the most loadbearing). Happy landings
That sounds like a fun episode. Didn’t they run an episode on soft shackles from parachuting already?
I'll never do paragliding but I would totally back up with the soft shackles.
I have always wondered why they don't back up with a soft shackle for years now
We have a back-up, it is called reserve parachute…
A lot of this slipping is why i fly with D-Shaded Carabiners on my Paragliding Harnesses. 09:07
I also fly with very narrow attachment points (on both sides) so having the D-Shape from a standard climbing carabiner is doubly useful. I can share some more information for non-paramotoring paragliding carabiner use 😊and carabiner attachments.
I have been watching tucker gott for years, very fun videos.
It's common sense to not buy biners and the like from Chyna, but it's still valuable to have the lesson visually demonstrated.
The ones where the pin blows out of back of the gate, I would really like to know what just a little bit more meat back there would do. 19 kn out of the alibaba clip and the pin rips though? don't cut it so close back there and that thing could do like 22 kn...
I for one can not wait for the HowNOT2 carabiner production series in 5 years. You've just had the ultimate R&D cover and have a drawer of designs and specs to storm the market with the perfect design 🤣
This was by far one of the most interesting videos and Ive watched you destroy a lot of stuff.
A thermal camera would be interesting to watch as these bend an snap 11:27
They DO make this stuff up!
Great idea with the inexpensive back up.
When I saw you guys use a paramoter to haul the zipline...line all I could think of is TUCKER GOTT CROSSOVER PLEASEEEEEE! And here we are! Before the climbing rabbithole I went down the paramotor rabbithole, but it's much more cost prohibitive and therefore the entry barrier is a lot bigger than climbing lol!!
I notice at 7:25 how the failure of the thin gates is always preceded by joint rotation, creating a large lever arm on those little grips.
People do backup with soft shackles sometimes, at least for paragliding, not sure about the motor stuff. It's rare though. A lot of the newer lightweight harnesses are switching to soft shackles in place of the bineers. Also note that we do have a reserve parachute in case of catastrophic failure, altough you need altitude to use those.
Cheers. I hope to paramotor someday.
Awesome to see. I was a keen climber so very I treated for myself and kids. It seems like paragliders should at very least have a second cord/strap coming past the carabiner to a second one. Even a prussic loop to another carabiner gives you an out. But the forces involved in parasailing shouldn't get close to even the open gate levels which I assume is why they don't bother.
I'm not fully cognizant of how the 'wing' works, but it's basically a parachute right? If you lose one out of two attachment points, doesn't that end just fly up uselessly and turn the whole 'wing' into a rope dangling above/behind you:?
Nice! You got the video done in time. How did the trip up Ingalls go? Can’t wait to see the angel cam footage.
I should have done the Ingalls video. This took me over 8 hours just to polish haha
Love your content! I have a vague recollection of penetrating indicators that are used by mechanics to search for stress factors (on steel only? maybe?). One direction you could pursue is to find some collaborator that could do this type of flaw analysis before breaking that big bag o' carabiners. Google isn't helping me there, so this may be moot.
Can you reach out to the companies and get the standard(s) they are tested to? And try and emulate the same test setup and procedure?
Fascinating! Paramotoring just seems inherently more dangerous than climbing, seemingly with piloting errors leading to the majority (?) of accidents. The sport is so niche, I wouldn't be surprised if catastrophic failure of a carabiner has never happened, even with these bad carabiners on the market. That said, as the sport evolves, it's important to have discussions like these. Having two points of "undundancy" definitely seems like a mistake.
I don't know about flying paramotors (outside that a propellor on the ground or on your back is scary), but as a climber and paraglider pilot I don't see much of a difference. Climbing accidents also happen from mistakes mostly (inatentive belayer, wrongly used material, etc.). (((Funnily enough, climbers keep asking paraglider pilots 'Isn't flying very dangerous?' and pilots asking climbers 'Isn't climbing very dangerous?'. I usually answer that climbing, flying, and playing table tennis are equally dangerous if you do it like a madman.)))
Paramotoring and paragliding are way more dangerous than climbing (based on the percentage of severe injuries per 1000). But its not due to carabiner failures. Most are take off and landing accidents.
On my ppg frame the reserve fors to a different set of shackles that are on the arms not on the comfort bars. On my freeflight paraglider harness thr reserve connects to the same shackles that my glider connects to.
As to the soft shackle question as a backup, I think the concern about that was that it might create more wear but I'm not sure.
That was damn neat
I operate a FAA Hot Air Balloon repair station. The balloon manufacturers normally supply oval steel Stubai 30 KN carabiners, or 50 KN for large balloons. I have not encountered any failures.
Finally!!!! Yesssssss
I've been using soft shackles recently, since they are integrated into the harness and can't be swapped out. Would be great to see the mbs for them 🙂
A biggest downside from personal experience, that shift shackles takes 3x time to connect / disconnect and harder to inspect.
Had a one flight with shackle not closed up to spec, and there are reports of people deploying reserves from not properly closing them.
Ayy I surgested you to him!
I’d use 1/2 inch screw pin anchor shackles with the pins safety wired. They have a 2 TON working load and a 10 TON breaking load. Each! Should do the job.
Kinda strange that you have a community and (be it a small one) industry making their stuff flying and they went with having two single points of failure instead of the usual airospace approach of "how many times redundant can we make it". Wonder if anyone is counting accidents.
It's quite easy to pull more than 3Gs in a spiral.
Paramotorists don't think, they are mostly a special breed of knuckle draggers, who think trying to fly the slowest aircraft in the world everywhere on the throttle is a good idea.
The Paramotor was designed to be a mobile hill, and used just like a Motor sailplane - power into a thermal, then go onto tick over, and only power back up if you cock up and need to climb again.
If I was a parasailor and I saw your video I'd only fly with 2 carabiners on each side so 4 in total. Stack them with the gates on opposite sites so you got 1 solid shackle on each side. Maybe that would negate some weak points?
If you ever test parasailing carabiners again that would be an interesting test to see I think. And good video!
Scary as F, consistently inconsistent. Thank you for the efforts, keep up the great work.
Very interesting that basically everything except the "legit" Air Xtreme in steel broke at or above their rated strength when loaded with a straight pull, even including the somewhat questionable brands. Great results, and would love to see how the fatigued ones do!
That is likely why the guy prefers the steel ones because they might have a lower breaking point but aluminum is softer so it will stretch and fatigue at a lower rating but not actually break... but a failure is still a failure.
If one "goes" you are not just "hangin weird off your wing...you are plummeting toward the earth in a free fall followed by a tail of cloth and string....(unless you have a reserve and are able to deploy it high enough, or it didnt break apart completely) Also, soft shackle back-up is a great idea!!
Why no soft-shackles? A lot of us (paragliders) are changing wings or removing them multiple times a day. Between changing wings, storing wings separately from harnesses and other reasons its convenient to be able to use a carabiner. If you think of a Tandem Pilot who easily can have 10 flights with 10 passengers a day being able to easily attach and remove your wing from your harnesses is quite useful.
Additionally having many multiples of webbing around a soft-shackle makes it hard to do a pre flight check to see if everything is correct. Two types of webbing attached on the opposite side of a metal thing is just easier to confirm.
Finally thinking of redundancy: Most rescues are attached at a separate place on the harness (i think to remember that this is also true for paramotor-where they are attached to the motor side of things but don’t ask me 😅). My rescue parachute is attached to the back of my harness with two loops of webbing (the one from the harness and the one from the parachute) connected by using the webbing only or by using quick links.
So if a carabiner would break i’d throw the reserve and rely on a separate attachment point to get me down safely.
Then why not back it up with 2 carabiners on each side?
@@SonnyKnutsonbecause one is usually super good enough when replaced after a couple of years (5y or 500-1000h should be fine). The incidents where broken carabiners where reported were way past this. Also the loops usually wouldn't fit a second carabiner.
Theres usually no space to attach two
Have you ever used a soft shackle? They are incredibly easy to install and remove.
Actually i fly with quite a few soft-shackles. They attach the individual lines to the risers.
However some harnesses have 4 or even more pieces of webbing going into the carabiner before you attach the gliders risers. And on hard stuff these things being wrong are easier to spot,@@Xanthroid1.
You dont make paramotor content *yet*. Thanks for this, I've been wondering about my air extreme caribeaners and have been putting off swapping them out. I do a lot of acro and I'm a moron so that's going to the top of the to-do list.
That red one, at around 12:24 into the video did it just right; held up for about 10 % MORE than its rating 👍💪👍.
...and two more after that... I like those.
Hey Ryan, what would be the issue with using locking climbing carabiners on a powered paraglider? Like an HMS carabiner perhaps?
Can you test the strength/knot strength loss of Teufelbergers 3mm "tech cord," a technora cored, polyester sheathed cord that appears to be able to beat the strength of 3mm dyneema?
Steel fatigues too. The difference is that steel has a fatigue limit whereas aluminum does not.
Steel "can" fatigue. ;)
I have always wondered what carabiners hardened to around 51-53 rockwell hardness would perform.
For reference a machete is about 48 hrc swords are 48-55, and kitchen knives are around 52-60 hrc
They should still deform before breaking but eventually they may potentially fatigue faster
Hopefully this stuff results in safer gear. We need MORE!
Get a price of cordura off of an old backpack would be a good place to check for it. Cut out a rectangle, sew Velcro to each long side one front one back of course so you can close it as a tube you can wrap around your slings as needed to protect them. Cheap, effective, easy to make and easily replaced.
Yes it is a very good idea to build in a safety backup, provided it does not pose a snag hazard.
I would bet they have steel test fixtures for those that underperformed but weren’t outright lies. That way as soon as the gate stretches the load transfers to the other side.
I am amazed though that Caribbeaners actually break at the rated strength. Every other item I’m aware of needs to test at 1.5x the rating.
Great content. Maybe Tucker Gott aught to teach you how to paramotor
The multiple-stamping impression is from a "pad walk" where the stamp pad in a pad printer has been moving around picking up ink in different locations instead of being refreshed cleanly for each stamping. It makes a huge mess of the result. Here's how such a machine works, and you have to either have a fully automated machine with product feeder or be asleep on the job to do such a bad job... ruclips.net/video/aZFfcA8v88U/видео.html
you should pop in a thermal cam
It would be a better shot if you could overlay the force graph in real time and as you do the slow mo to see the force go up. In addition, using a thermal camera to show the heat in the carabiner would be super interesting.
You just opened a can of worms matey.
We need you to test how much force UNHOOKED KITELOOPS generate. Also paragliding spiral dive with the risers on dynos would be sick to see
it was not stamped, it is marked by a fiber laser (I have one) they probably had a bad jig to consistently hold them on same place so it was marked under angle or on other place (I engrave names on tea spoons which are formed by press and there are too inconsistent with the dimensions so I need to align each by hand)
Been watching your vids, awesome stuff! Can you drop test helicopter lanyards? Would be cool to see.
wheres the link to the last vid?
I thought I clicked on an electrical video LMAO
That thumbnail looked like you were showin’ electrical tape over a cord, And I assumed it was some cheap electrical something that couldn’t actually the amount of electricity it claimed to.
