Snap hooks, or snap fasteners, are designed for quick attachment and detachment of ropes, chains, or other items. Featuring a spring-loaded gate that opens with pressure, they allow for easy connection to loops, rings, or other hardware. Once the hook is secured, the gate automatically closes, locking the connection in place. Rigging triggers, often incorporated into snap hooks, provide an additional layer of security in rigging setups. These components feature a trigger mechanism that prevents accidental disengagement while still allowing for quick access when needed.
Quick links serve to join chains, ropes, or other rigging components. They feature a threaded or screw mechanism that allows for secure closure, ensuring the connection remains intact under load. Triggers snaps, or trigger hooks, are specialized connectors that allow for instantaneous engagement and disengagement of connected items. They operate using a lever mechanism that, when pulled, opens the hook's gate for quick attachment or release.
