Sea-Dog Stainless Steel Snap Hook 151580-1, 5/16 Inch Size, 3-1/8 Inch Overall Length

The Sea-Dog 151580-1 is a formed 316 stainless steel snap hook designed for quick, secure attachment to ropes, chains, straps, and small diameter cable. It uses an interlocking, spring-loaded gate that snaps closed automatically once clipped onto a fixing point, making it well suited for rigging and anchoring applications aboard a boat where a fast, reliable connection is needed. The 5/16 inch size snap hook has an overall length of 3-1/8 inches and is rated to a breaking strength of 1,400 pounds. Because it is constructed of formed 316 stainless steel, it resists corrosion from saltwater and marine environments, holding up to repeated use in exposed rigging, anchor lines, and general boat hardware applications. This snap hook is part of a graduated size range from Sea-Dog, so boaters can match the hook size to the diameter of the line or chain being used.
