Sea-Dog 316 SS Rotating Eye Bull Nose Snap, 4-1/2 In
Sea-Dog 316 SS Rotating Eye Bull Nose Snap, 4-1/2 In — Product description
The Sea-Dog Rotating Eye Bull Nose Snap is a 316 stainless steel quick-connect for flag halyards, rigging, and topside gear. The rotating eye keeps your line from kinking, and the smooth bull nose opens easily with wet hands. It measures 4-1/2 inches with a 1/2 inch hook and a 1 inch ring. Sold as a single snap.
The Sea-Dog Rotating Eye Bull Nose Snap is one of those small pieces of rigging hardware you'll reach for again and again. It's a 316 stainless steel snap with a smooth bull nose profile and a rotating eye, built for clipping lines, flags, and gear where you want a quick, secure connection that won't kink under a twisting load.
The rotating eye is the part that earns its keep. Tie or splice your line to the eye and it spins freely, so the snap lines up with the load instead of fighting it. That keeps a flag halyard from wrapping and stops your line from taking a set. The bull nose shape opens and closes with a thumb, even when your hands are cold and wet.
The dimensions are practical for topside work: a 1/2 inch hook opening, a 1 inch ring diameter, and 4-1/2 inches overall. The 316 stainless holds up to salt spray and sun, so it's at home on the bow, at the flag halyard, or anywhere on deck where a plated snap would rust out. It ships as a single snap.
