How to attach a carabiner clip to a backpack securely?
Use locking carabiners (screwgate or auto-lock) to fasten gear. Clip to reinforced loops or daisy chains—avoid weak zipper pulls. Distribute weight evenly; 10+ kN-rated clips (e.g., Nite Ize S-Biner) handle 20+ lbs. Prevent snagging with keylock noses. Check closures hourly on rough trails. Never overload—split heavy items across multiple clips.
