how often should you relace caribiners and belay devices? appears we have these models.

 | It's usually by visual inspection. Over time, both the carabiner and belay device will begin to notch at their contact surfaces. If the notches develop sharp edges, they can damage your rope (it's way cheaper to replace a belay 'biner than your rope). There are other reasons to replace gear, but this is under normal use and wear.
