27kN Strength in Lightweight Package

With a 27kN (6,000 lb) minimum breaking strength, this aluminum snap hook delivers professional-grade performance that's suitable for demanding climbing, arborist, and rigging applications. At just 5.8 oz, it provides excellent strength without the weight penalty of steel connectors. This exceptional strength-to-weight ratio makes it ideal for applications where every ounce matters, from tree climbing to alpine expeditions to lightweight rigging systems.

Forged Aluminum Advantage

Forged aluminum construction provides the perfect balance of strength and weight for professional applications. The forging process creates a refined grain structure that makes the snap hook significantly stronger and more durable than cast aluminum alternatives. This superior construction method ensures the snap hook can handle serious loads while maintaining its ultra-lightweight profile, making it ideal for arborists working in trees all day, climbers carrying gear up routes, and riggers building lightweight systems.

Double-Lock Safety Mechanism

The double-lock safety mechanism provides maximum security in critical applications. Opening the gate requires two separate, deliberate actions, virtually eliminating the risk of accidental opening during use. Once closed, the gate automatically locks without manual intervention, ensuring you're always protected. This combination of features makes it ideal for tree climbing, rigging, and professional work environments where equipment failure is not an option.

Fixed Eye Design

The fixed eye design provides a solid, non-rotating connection point that's ideal for applications where you need a stable attachment. Unlike swivel eyes that rotate freely, the fixed eye maintains a consistent orientation, making it perfect for connecting to harness D-rings, lanyard ends, rigging points, and anchor points where rotation isn't needed. The fixed eye also eliminates moving parts that could wear or fail, providing maximum reliability.

Black Anodized Finish

The black anodized finish serves multiple purposes: it provides excellent corrosion resistance to protect the aluminum from oxidation and wear, creates a durable surface that resists scratching and abrasion, and offers a professional, low-profile appearance. The protective coating guards against rust, moisture, and environmental exposure, ensuring long-term reliability in outdoor and demanding conditions.

Perfect for Arborist Work

Arborists working in trees all day need equipment that's strong, reliable, and lightweight. This forged aluminum snap hook delivers on all counts with professional 27kN strength, double-lock safety, and ultra-lightweight 5.8 oz design. Whether you're setting rigging points, connecting to anchor points, or building climbing systems, this snap hook provides the performance you need without the fatigue-inducing weight of steel alternatives.

Ultra-Lightweight Performance

Weighing just 5.8 oz (0.36 lbs), this aluminum snap hook is a game-changer for weight-conscious applications. For tree climbers working at height all day, mountaineers carrying gear up routes, or riggers building lightweight systems, the weight savings make a real difference in reducing fatigue and increasing efficiency. Multiple aluminum snap hooks can replace heavier steel connectors without compromising on strength, dramatically reducing overall system weight.

Versatile Rigging Applications

From tree climbing to rock climbing to general rigging, this aluminum snap hook handles a wide range of applications. Use it for gear attachment, lightweight hauling systems, rigging points, towing operations, or any situation where you need a reliable connector that won't add unnecessary weight to your setup.

Compact and Efficient

The streamlined design minimizes bulk while maintaining 27kN strength. The compact profile makes it easy to clip to your harness, pack in your gear bag, or integrate into rigging systems without adding unnecessary size or weight. The efficient design ensures smooth operation and reliable performance in all conditions.
