Maillon Rapide

The Petzl Maillon Rapide sold here under reference P15 B is the Petzl GO 7 mm oval steel quick link — the same physical product Siren Safety also lists under its 'GO' handle — supplied in the dealer's box/bulk packaging rather than as a single loose unit.

Rope access technicians, arborists and rigging crews use this oval steel quick link for a semi-permanent connection, such as anchoring sling webbing to an anchor point or leaving it in place at a rigging or rappel station, rather than as a connector that gets opened and closed repeatedly like a carabiner. Its captive threaded sleeve closes securely by hand and resists loosening once tightened. "Maillon rapide" is simply French for "quick link"; it is not a separate Petzl product line from GO, and the specifications below are identical to Petzl's standard GO 7 mm listing.
