When it’s under tension it doesn’t make any noise. Some wrap their carabiners with foam tape. There has been some recent discussion about using heat shrink on the carabiner.

For me, I’ve never found it to be an issue. But we all handle and carry our gear differently. Mine stays in my pouch until I get to the tree. Some walk in with it connected to their saddle so they’re ready to go.

quieting safeguard

I like the safeguard so far but its so clanky and needs to be quieted down. How do you all quiet down or stealth strip your safeguard?

I have the lifeguard but same shape.

1) tape your carabiner where it’ll still fit in the loop of the lifeguard. Use hockey tape.
2) lone wolf custom gear tech tape. I’ve had that on the outside non moving portions of my lifeguard for about 6 months. It’s held up.

Wrap both in stealth strips, vet tape or hockey tape. Make sure you haven't interfered with the function of either once finished.

Thanks, never saw this before. They have it in stock on ebay .

Reviews on amazon are a little spotty, that it is not very sticky. Is that why you had to go over it with the twine? But +1 thanks for posting, looks like they have camo, but it is OOS right now. But that is a great find!

I vet wrap my biners and stealth strip the MR Safeguard

how did you get the tiger stripe look?...I see black stripes or is it an illusion from the camera?

It’s a separate black string wrapped around it. At least that’s what it looks like to me. I’m curious if it’s for looks or because it’s not sticky enough

It holds pretty well i was impressed with it. I use 2 wraps around caribeaner so that it fits tight inside the mad rock. I tie the serving string on it so that it never comes loose, It sticks to smooth surfaces well but not to itself well enough to take that kinda abuse. I have 2 of them I set up the same way
