316 Stainless Snap Hook with Ferrule Eye - Length L: 60 mm
Keep a defined rope attachment point within the hook’s formed eye using this 316 stainless steel spring snap hook. A ferrule rope eye is fixed into the formed eye as part of the design.
The selected model combines a 6 mm D dimension with a 60 mm length measurement and a 7 mm B dimension. These measurements identify this size within the range.
Convenient access to a removable connection
A snap fitting is useful where the connection needs to be opened and closed without dismantling the surrounding assembly. The particular eye, body and opening mechanism determine how it will be handled in use. Check that the operating part remains accessible in the final position, especially where the fitting sits close to another component.
Compare the opening clearance with the part that must pass through it, then check the space inside the eye or body once connected. Allow room for swivel movement where the selected model includes that feature. During routine checks, inspect the spring or release action and the contact surfaces together. Use the dimensions and any stated working-load guidance for the exact fitting being ordered.
Selection details
Check the eye and opening dimensions against the intended rope or connector. The ferrule changes the available eye space, so compare the listed measurements rather than the outside shape alone. Select the suggested working load appropriate to the complete arrangement.
The suggested working load is 125 kg. It is approximately 25% of ultimate breaking load; breaking load must not be used as an operating load.
The opening action affects how comfortably the fitting can be handled in its intended position. Check whether the selected model uses a spring gate, trigger bolt, scissor action or pull-release mechanism, then allow room to operate it. Choose the eye style to suit the adjoining line or hardware and the movement required in the connection.
