Nice video, unfortunately like all made-for-TV engineering videos, made for the great unwashed.
"Quick paint job" is easier to explain to the masses than anodizing.

I found it interesting that they actually test every one to ensure that the gate can open under load.
Anybody figure out who the manufacturer/brand is?

There's the top of a Black Diamond logo showing at 3min 45sec.

BD tests every biner to half it's rated strength I believe. Next time you handle a new BD biner, look in the corners and you can see where the test pins have actually dented the metal during testing. Kind of reassuring.
