CE/ANSI Alloy Steel Or Aluminum Snap Hook For Lanyard

Featured as a critical component for PPE equipment, the minimal strength of the alloy steel snap hook and aluminum snap hook is 22KN according to CE standard and 25KN according to ANSI standard. No matter it is alloy steel or aluminum snap hook, it is CE, ANSI and CSA certified and meet the CE standard EN362-2004, ANSI standard Z359.12-09 and CSA standard Z259.12-16. The snap hook is widely used for rope lanyard and webbing lanyard. It has been exported to more than 85 countries and regions throughout the world in Europe, America, Mid-east area, Australia, Southeast Asia, Africa etc.

As a attachment for safety harness lanyard, the lanyard snap hook is made of alloy steel or aluminum. The snap hook differs from each other not only in material, but also in style and surface treatment. Zinc plated, polished; Zinc plated, matte and yellow zinc plated, matte are available for surface finish.

There critical steps to ensure the quality:

Ø Spectrographic analysis

Ensure proper metallurgy content of all raw materials.

Ø Proof load Testing

All safety harness connecting components are 100% proof loaded to 3600IBS/16KN.

Ø Ultimate breaking Load Test

Connecting and adjusting components are batch tested for ultimate breaking strength.

-Connecting components-exceed 5000lBS

-Adjusting components-exceed 4000lBS
