Embodiments are directed to a carabiner that includes a carabiner body including a first side and a second side opposite of the first side, the carabiner body forming an opening on the first side and including a gate base and a gate rest. The carabiner further includes a pivotable gate coupled to the gate base on or near the second side at a pivotable point and adapted to contact the gate rest when in a closed position.

Devices formed from interconnected components. Each assembled device comprises a yoke component, a boss component and an axle bolt. The yoke component comprising: a. carabiner body that includes a back, an opening, and a yoke formation. The yoke formation is constituted by a U-shaped section that is open to the outside of the body, and which defines a space between two legs, the legs having bearing surfaces through each of which a respective axle bore is formed. The back extends from the yoke formation to an end at a first limit of the opening. A spur extends from the yoke formation to an end at a second limit of the opening. A gate on the body can pivot between a closed position, in which it closes the opening, and an open position in which an object can be passed through the opening into a space within the body. The boss component has flat, parallel external bearing surfaces, an axle bore extending through the boss component, the axle bore opening at each bearing surface. The axle bolt passes through the axle bores in the yoke and boss component.

The boss component has flat, parallel external bearing surfaces, an axle bore extending through the boss component, the axle bore opening at each bearing surface. The axle bolt passes through the axle bores in the yoke and boss component.

A linkless, locking snap-hook, comprising a body member with a proximal hook, defining a proximal opening facing a first direction, and a distal hook, defining a distal opening facing a second direction. A linkless, locking snap-hook also comprising a locking mechanism which has a keeper, a biasing means, and a locking grip member. The linkless, locking snap-hook is capable of accepting a variety of attachment devices.

A hanger (10) comprises a main part (12) having a holding formation (36) for holding an elongate article (15) in a position in which the elongate article (15) extends through the holding formation (36). The main part (12) has a support portion (38) for supporting an elongate item (11). The main part (12) defines a gap (22) to allow the elongate item (1) to be received in the support portion (38). The hanger (10) further includes a closure member (24) to close the gap (22).

Embodiments are directed to a carabiner that includes a carabiner body forming an opening having a width, the carabiner body including a gate rest notch, and a gate rest. The carabiner further includes a pivotable gate coupled to the carabiner body at a pivotable point and adapted to contact the gate rest notch when in a closed position. The carabiner body is sized to accommodate an object with an aperture and a thickness, and the width is approximately less than 100% greater than the thickness.

A load sharing snap-linkable safety rigging plate preferably includes a rigging body, a first gate, a second gate, two first pivoting locks and two second pivoting locks. The rigging body includes a base portion, a first open gate loop and a second open gate loop. A plurality of openings are formed through the base portion. The first and second gates are pivotally engaged with first and second ends of the base portion. The second gate is pivotally engaged with a second end of the base portion and an opposing end is retained by an end of the second open gate loop. The first two pivoting locks are pivotally retained on a first end of the base portion to prevent the first gate from opening. The second two pivoting locks are pivotally retained on a second end of the base portion to prevent the second gate from opening.

Embodiments are directed to a carabiner that includes a carabiner body forming an opening having a width, the carabiner body including a gate rest notch, a gate rest and a long side, with the opening opposite the long side. The carabiner further includes a pivotable gate coupled to the carabiner body at a pivotable point and adapted to contact the gate rest notch when in a closed position. The opening includes a first side and a second side, the first side including a first angle that is non-perpendicular to the long side of the carabiner body and the second side including a second angle that is non-perpendicular to the long side of the carabiner body.

A snap hook includes a body, a gate, a connection link, and a coupling. The body has a central portion positioned between an upper portion and a lower portion. The gate is pivotally coupled proximate the central portion. The gate and the body selectively form a closed configuration that defines a hook connection passage and an open configuration that provides access to the hook connection passage. The connection link has an upper end pivotally coupled proximate the central portion of the body and a lower end including a body connection aperture. The coupling interconnects the lower end and the lower portion. The coupling is configured to break when a select amount of force is applied to the lower end and release the lower end from the lower portion to redirect the select amount of force from the lower portion to the central portion of the body.

In the disclosed devices formed from interconnected components, each includes a yoke component, a boss component and an axle bolt. The yoke component includes: a carabiner body with a back, an opening, and a yoke formation. The yoke formation includes a U-shaped section open to the outside of the body, defining a space between two legs, the legs having bearing surfaces through each of which a respective axle bore is formed. The back extends from the yoke formation. A spur extends from the yoke formation. A gate on the body pivots between closed and open positions. The boss component has flat, parallel external bearing surfaces, an axle bore extending through the boss component, the axle bore opening at each bearing surface. The axle bolt passes through the axle bores in the yoke and boss component.
