Choosing the Right Carabiner or Snap Hook
When selecting a boat carabiner or snap hook, it's essential to consider the specific requirements of your marine application.
Here are some key factors to consider:
- Material: Marine grade stainless steel is a popular choice for its exceptional corrosion resistance and durability.
- Locking Mechanism: Locking carabiners offer a more secure attachment, making them ideal for safety and jackline systems. Look for a carabiner safety hook or a locking snap hook.

- Weight Capacity: Ensure the marine grade carabiner or marine snap hook is rated for the working and maximum loads it will be subjected to.
