Pear-Shaped Riveted Hammer-Close
Connecting Links—Not for Lifting
Restrict rope and chain movement with the narrow end, attach multiple connectors to the wide end, and then hammer these links closed. Using a ball peen hammer, strike the prongs until they expand and hold the link together. Made of galvanized steel, these links have a thick coating for corrosion resistance. Never reuse these links after they've been closed.
