Sea-Dog 316 Stainless Snap Hook 1400 lb | 151580-1
Sea-Dog 316 Stainless Snap Hook 1400 lb | 151580-1 — Product description
This is the Sea-Dog gourd-shaped snap hook, machined from 316 stainless steel with a spring-loaded interlocking gate and a 1,400 pound capacity. It's a clean, corrosion-free way to make a fast, secure connection just about anywhere on the boat.
If you want a strong snap hook that'll shrug off salt spray, this Sea-Dog interlocking snap earns its spot in the gear bag. It's made from 316 stainless steel, the grade we reach for anytime hardware lives out in the weather, and the gourd shape keeps the load centered so the gate isn't carrying the strain.
The spring-loaded gate snaps shut on its own and interlocks when it closes, so it won't work itself open under a shifting load. You get a 7/16 inch eye for your line, split ring, or a small shackle, a 3/8 inch gate opening, and an overall length of 3-1/8 inches. Rated capacity is 1,400 pounds.
Boaters reach for these all over the boat. Flag and burgee halyards, fender lines, bimini and cover tie-downs, dinghy rigging, keeper chains on pins and plugs. Anywhere you want a quick, repeatable connection that doesn't rust, it's a solid pick. Clip it on, tug it to seat the gate, and you're done.
