Petzl MGO OPEN 60 Directional Connector

Description

Petzl MGO OPEN 60 – High-Strength Directional Connector with Removable Gate

Looking for a secure and user-friendly large-opening connector for your fall protection setup? The Petzl MGO OPEN 60 Directional Connector is engineered for quick anchoring to metal structures or oversized anchor points with its wide 60 mm gate opening. This makes it ideal for tower climbers, wind energy technicians, and rope access professionals who regularly anchor to beams, scaffold tubes, or steel structures.

Unlike most large hooks, the MGO OPEN 60 features a removable gated connection point at its base. This allows you to easily integrate it into a lanyard or rope system and remove or replace the rope or energy absorber when needed—without cutting or damaging your gear. This smart design supports gear longevity and system versatility.

The double-action locking system ensures that the gate only opens with intentional pressure, significantly reducing the risk of accidental disengagement. Constructed from high-grade aluminum, the MGO OPEN 60 offers a balance of strength and lightweight performance, with a 23 kN gate strength and CE EN 362 certification for reliable use in professional environments.
