When is it recommended to use triangular screw links?

Triangular screw links are particularly recommended for situations where a three-way load is possible. This type of equipment is designed to effectively manage loads that can be applied from multiple directions. The triangular design provides greater stability and strength compared to other link types, making it suitable for configurations involving three connection points.

When loads are applied from different angles, the triangular screw link can distribute the forces more evenly, reducing the risk of failure or slippage that might occur with a less suitable connector. This characteristic is especially useful in climbing, rigging, and rescue operations, where varying angles of load are common.

Using a triangular screw link in this context ensures safety and reliability, whereas using them in conditions that only require two-way load handling or for securing knots may not leverage their full potential, therefore it is crucial to select the right type of equipment based on the expected load dynamics.
