FAQs

What is the breaking load of this carabiner clip?

The breaking load for the 10mm SecureFix Direct Snap Carabiner Clip is 1203KG.

What material is the clip made from?

The clip is made from High Tensile Stainless Steel.

What are the main dimensions of the 10mm clip?

The dimensions are: A - 100MM (Length), B - 13MM (Wire Diameter), C - 31MM (Opening Width), D - 9MM (Eyelet Diameter), E - 28MM (Eyelet Width).

Is this clip suitable for climbing or overhead lifting?

This clip is designed for general-purpose attachment and securing. It is not certified for climbing or certified overhead lifting applications where specific safety standards must be met.

How should I maintain the clip?

Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and drying thoroughly, especially after exposure to saltwater, is recommended. Periodic inspection of the gate mechanism is also advised.

Can I use this clip in saltwater environments?

Yes, the high tensile stainless steel construction makes it highly resistant to corrosion and suitable for marine and saltwater environments, provided it is rinsed and dried after use.

What is the benefit of the 'wide opening' feature?

The wide opening allows for quicker and easier attachment of items, and it can accommodate larger objects or thicker ropes and chains compared to standard carabiner clips.

Troubleshooting

Gate does not close fully

Check for obstructions in the gate mechanism. Clean any debris and lubricate lightly if necessary. Ensure the gate is not bent.

Difficulty opening or closing the gate

Clean the gate area thoroughly to remove dirt or salt buildup. A light application of a suitable lubricant (e.g., marine-grade grease) may help. If damage is suspected, discontinue use.

Visible signs of corrosion or rust

While stainless steel is highly resistant, prolonged exposure to certain chemicals or extreme saltwater conditions can cause minor surface discoloration. Clean with a non-abrasive cleaner and rinse thoroughly. Significant pitting or structural compromise requires replacement.
