Also known as quick links, these links thread closed by hand or with a wrench.

The narrow end restricts the movement of rope and chain, and the wide end allows room to attach multiple connectors.

The twisted shape of these links prevents loads from rotating or knotting.

Drive the end through the eye using a ball peen hammer and then weld or flatten the extended end to close. These links are also known as cold shuts.

Strike the prongs with a ball peen hammer and they expand to hold the connecting link together.

Also known as C-links, the notch in these links lets you slip additional links on or remove links quickly.

Hang, pull, and secure loads. These rings are good for general non-lifting applications.

Smaller than lifting oblong links, these links provide room for snaps, carabiners, and other non-lifting connectors.

Also known as master and sling links, a large inner diameter provides room to attach multiple connectors or legs on a sling.

Providing better load distribution and alignment than single oblong links, these reduce wear in three and four leg slings.

Hammer the pin through the center to assemble these links. They’re also known as hammer locks and sling links.

The flat side lets webbing and strapping lay flat, so they don’t slide and bunch.

These snaps have an eye that rotates for easy positioning.

The force of the load helps keep the arms closed. Press the trigger for quick connection and disconnection.

To open, lift and twist the latch 90°.

Attach a rope to the ring on the pin for remote release where access in limited. These shackes have a clevis end for making pivoting connections.
