Snaphooks and Carabiners

Snap hooks and carabiners are critical connectors used in fall protection systems to secure lanyards, lifelines and harnesses to anchor points. They ensure secure attachment and are designed for quick connection and disconnection in demanding environments like construction and industrial settings.

• High Strength: These connectors are built from materials like steel, aluminum, and stainless steel, capable of handling significant loads and offering reliable safety.
• Automatic Locking Mechanisms: Twist-lock and auto-lock features enhance safety by reducing the risk of accidental disengagement during use.
• Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel and aluminum options ensure long-lasting performance, even in wet or corrosive environments.
• Wide Gate Openings: Designed for attaching to larger anchor points, especially in scaffolding and industrial settings, making it easier to secure to various structures.
• Lightweight Designs: Aluminum snap hooks and carabiners offer high strength while reducing weight, making them easier to carry and use over long periods.

• Steel Snap Hooks: Built for strength and durability, ideal for high-load applications in construction or industrial tasks. Steel snap hooks provide robust and secure connections.
• Aluminum Snap Hooks: Lightweight and strong, these snap hooks are perfect for tasks that require mobility, such as climbing. They offer strength without adding excessive weight.
• Stainless Steel Carabiners: Corrosion-resistant carabiners designed for use in harsh environments like water treatment plants, oil rigs and outdoor settings prone to moisture.
• Twist-Lock Carabiners: These feature an automatic locking mechanism. This makes them secure and easy to operate with one hand. Twist-locks are popular in rescue operations and rope access work.
• Rebar Hooks: Designed for easy attachment to large anchor points like scaffolding or rebar. These hooks have extra-wide gate openings for convenience and flexibility.

When selecting snap hooks or carabiners, consider the following:

• Material: Steel is ideal for heavy-duty tasks requiring strength, while aluminum provides lightweight mobility, and stainless steel is best for corrosive environments.
• Locking Mechanism: For extra safety, choose connectors with automatic or twist-locking mechanisms to prevent accidental disengagement.
• Gate Size: If you’ll be attaching to large anchor points like scaffolding or beams, ensure the connector has a wide gate opening. 
• Load Requirements: Check the strength rating to ensure the snap hook or carabiner can handle the required load in your specific application.
