Designed for equestrian enthusiasts and stable owners, these Waldhausen replacement snap hooks are essential for maintaining horse rugs that utilize the Triplex front closure system. Providing a secure and durable method to keep your horse's blanket fastened, these silver-finished clips offer a precise fit, though users should ensure their current rug model is compatible with the 6 cm Triplex hardware standard before purchase.

No, these are specifically designed for the Triplex front closure system and will not fit standard pin-buckle closures.
Each snap hook measures 6 cm.
The package includes a pair (two) of snap hooks.
They feature a durable silver finish designed for stable environments, but regular cleaning is recommended to maintain their condition.
These are optimized for horse rug front closures; they may not be suitable for high-tension applications like lead ropes or halters.
Check for debris or dirt buildup in the hinge; rinse with water and apply a light lubricant.
Verify that the webbing loop of the rug has not stretched; if it has, consider restitching the loop for a tighter fit.
To install, simply remove the damaged component from the rug's strap webbing and thread the new Waldhausen snap hook through the existing loop. Ensure the spring-loaded mechanism faces outward for easier access when blanketing your horse. Compatibility is strictly limited to rugs featuring the Triplex front closure system; verify your rug's hardware matches the 6 cm dimensions before attempting installation. To maintain the life of the clips, periodically rinse them with fresh water if the horse has been turned out in muddy or sandy conditions, and lightly apply a silicone-based lubricant to the spring hinge to prevent stiffness.
