Twist Panic Snaps – what to choose?

Designed for working with horses, the twist panic snap lets you release the animal with a twist, unlike panic hooks that open with a pull. The swivel eye eliminates twisting of the rope, increasing comfort. What to choose: material and eye size. Brass, stainless steel and brass-plated steel versions have a breaking load of 380 kg, the chrome-plated zinc die-cast version 290 kg. The eye measures 25 mm (zinc), 28 mm (brass) or 32 mm (stainless steel and brass-plated steel), so match it to the rope or strap that runs through it.

Parameter guide

What the parameters mean and how to choose the right values.

The dimension of the whole piece, end to end. It tells you how much room the fitting takes on the finished item; whether it fits the webbing depends on the eye width. The whole piece is measured, not just its working part, so two pieces with the same eye width can differ in length.

Inner width of the eye – determines the maximum width of material you can thread through. Choose an eye the same width or slightly wider than your strap, rope or leather lace.

Gate opening indicates how wide the gate opens. It determines the maximum diameter of the ring or D-ring it can clip onto.
