50kN Breaking Strength: Built for Extreme Loads

With an impressive 50kN (11,240 lb) minimum breaking strength, this swivel snap hook is built for applications where standard equipment simply isn't enough. The exceptional strength rating provides a significant safety margin for heavy-duty rigging, rescue operations with multiple personnel or heavy equipment, and industrial applications where loads can be substantial. When you need maximum strength and reliability, this is the snap hook that delivers.

360-Degree Swivel Prevents Rope Twist

The integrated 360-degree swivel eye is what sets this snap hook apart from standard fixed-eye designs. When loads rotate or spin during lifting, lowering, or positioning operations, the swivel allows the hook to rotate freely, preventing dangerous rope twist and tangling. This is especially critical in heavy-duty applications where twisted ropes can significantly reduce strength and create hazardous conditions. The swivel also reduces wear on your rope or lanyard by eliminating stress from rotation.

Double Action Self-Locking Security

The double-action self-locking gate mechanism provides maximum security in critical fall protection and rigging 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 demanding work environments where equipment failure is not an option.

Forged Steel for Maximum Strength

Forged steel construction provides exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and superior durability. The forging process creates a refined grain structure that makes the hook more resistant to impact, fatigue, and stress compared to cast or stamped alternatives. This means the snap hook will maintain its integrity even after years of demanding use with heavy loads in harsh industrial and construction environments.

Why Choose a Swivel Snap Hook?

Rope twist is more than just an inconvenience in heavy-duty applications—it can compromise the strength of your rope and create dangerous situations. The swivel eye on this snap hook automatically compensates for load rotation, keeping your rope or lanyard straight and maintaining its full strength. Whether you're rigging heavy equipment, performing rescue operations, or working on industrial projects, the swivel ensures smooth, tangle-free operation even under extreme loads.

ANSI Certification You Can Trust

ANSI certification means this swivel snap hook has been independently tested and verified to meet rigorous American safety standards for fall protection connectors. When you're working with heavy loads at height, ANSI certification provides the assurance that your equipment has been proven to perform when it matters most.

Built for the Toughest Jobs

Heavy-duty industrial and construction work demands equipment that can handle extreme conditions and substantial loads. This forged steel swivel snap hook is engineered to perform reliably with corrosion-resistant coating, robust construction, and a swivel mechanism that maintains smooth operation even after thousands of cycles under heavy loads.
