Sea-Dog 316 Stainless Snap Hook 5/8 in, 2500 lb
Sea-Dog 316 Stainless Snap Hook 5/8 in, 2500 lb — Product description
This is the Sea-Dog 316 stainless steel snap hook, built for rigging, safety lines, and general deck work where you need a fast, secure connection. The spring-loaded gate snaps shut on its own, and the eye insert lets you splice or shackle it to line. Rated to 2500 pounds, it holds up to salt and spray.
The Sea-Dog snap hook is one of those pieces of deck hardware you end up using everywhere. It's a gourd-shaped hook with a spring-loaded, interlocking gate, so it snaps closed on its own the moment you let go. No fumbling with a screw gate when your hands are full or wet.
It's machined from 316 stainless steel, the grade you want on saltwater boats. That's what keeps it from rusting out after a season of spray and sun. The 5/8 inch gate opening takes standard line, a ring, or a shackle, and the eye insert on the back end gives you a clean point to splice or lash to. Overall length runs 4-11/16 inches with a 5/8 inch eye diameter.
With a 2500 pound capacity, it's plenty for safety tethers, fender lines, tow bridles, flag halyards, and dinghy rigging. Keep a couple aboard. You'll always find a use for them.
