{"product_id":"sea-dog-316-stainless-steel-quick-link-3-1-2-in-oval","title":"Sea-Dog 316 Stainless Steel Quick Link, 3-1\/2 In Oval","description":"\u003cp class=\"nvn-hero\"\u003eThe Sea-Dog quick link gives you a fast, secure connection point in marine-grade 316 stainless steel. The spring-loaded interlocking gate snaps shut on its own, so you're not fighting a threaded sleeve with cold hands. At 3-1\/2 inches with a 7\/16 inch gate opening, it drops right into anchor rodes, safety lines, and everyday deck rigging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever tried to thread a screw-gate link closed while the boat's pitching, you'll appreciate this one. The gate is spring-loaded and interlocking, so it snaps shut on its own and stays put. No fumbling with a knurled sleeve, no dropped hardware over the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's cut from 316 stainless steel, the grade you want for anything that lives in salt spray. That's what keeps it from streaking rust down your gelcoat after a season out there. The oval body measures 3-1\/2 inches long with a 7\/16 inch gate opening, so it clears most shackle pins, thimbles, and chain links without a wrestling match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated to a 15,800 pound capacity, it's got plenty of margin for anchor rode connections, safety tethers, fender lines, and general rigging jobs around the deck. Anglers use them for gear, cruisers keep a few in the ready bag. It's simple, honest hardware you buy once and forget about. We'd still give it a quick rinse now and then to keep the gate spring moving freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction resists salt corrosion and rust staining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring-loaded interlocking gate snaps shut automatically, no threaded sleeve to fumble\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOval body, 3-1\/2 inch length with a 7\/16 inch gate opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e15,800 pound capacity for anchor rode, safety lines, and general deck rigging\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine-grade hardware from Sea-Dog Line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Sea-Dog reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat is the gate opening on this Sea-Dog quick link?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe gate opening is 7\/16 inch, which clears most shackle pins, thimbles, and chain links.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eIs this quick link okay for saltwater use?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes.
