Sea-Dog Quick Link 158008-1, 5/16 Inch Wire, 7,700 lb Working Load, Galvanized Steel

The Sea-Dog Quick Link 158008-1 is a reusable, removable connector built for fast, secure connections between two lengths of chain or for attaching accessories to chain. It features a two-sided threaded link with a hex-shaped bolt that opens and closes easily by hand or with a wrench, so it can be taken apart and reused rather than replaced after every use. This makes it a practical choice for chain repair, hanging hammocks, rigging restraining gates, and other general marine and outdoor connection tasks where a permanent link is not desired.

The 158008-1 is constructed of electro-galvanized formed mild steel, which provides a corrosion-resistant finish suited to marine and outdoor environments. It uses a 5/16 inch wire size and carries a working load rating of 7,700 pounds, giving it enough strength for demanding chain and rigging applications. The link measures 2-15/16 inches overall, matching common 5/16 inch chain and hardware sizing, so it drops into existing chain runs without modification.
