[edit] Requirements

standardize and simplify our range of carabiners
Technical Rescue Riggers Guide, 2nd edition by Rick Lipke pg 183: 24-36 locking aluminum carabiners (steel if have to meet NFPA requirements)
NFPA requires MBS 27 kN for "T" Technical Use, 40 kN for "G" General Use
PEP RRTM manual requires strength matching use, which in 20 kN for most purposes, could be 30 kN for 3 person load on 12.5mm rope, 40 kN (use trilink) for 2 person load on counter balance.
"D" shape generally, though can use some pear shaped for radium load releasing hitch and italian hitch
prefer aluminum for light weight
gate opening minimum 1.8cm -- chosen as median of quality biners, sort of a proxy for working size

24 carabiners at CAD$23.00 = ~CAD$560
