Wichard 2327W Asymmetric Carbine Hook 120mm (4-3/4") 316L Stainless Steel with Eye

The Wichard 2327W Asymmetric Carbine Hook is a premium marine-grade snap hook measuring 120mm (approximately 4-3/4") in length, engineered for demanding fastening applications aboard sailboats and powerboats. Built from grade 316L stainless steel and hot forged for structural integrity, this carbine hook delivers outstanding reliability in corrosive saltwater environments.

The distinctive asymmetric (D-shaped) design concentrates load forces on the stronger, non-gate side of the hook, resulting in a higher overall load capacity compared to symmetric designs. A built-in eye at the base allows for secure attachment to webbing, lanyards, and tethers, making this hook a popular choice for safety harness tethers and deck rigging applications.

Key Features:

• Grade 316L stainless steel construction — hot forged and passivated for maximum corrosion resistance and structural homogeneity
• Asymmetric shape directs load to the stronger, non-gate side for increased overall strength
• Integrated eye for webbing or tether attachment
• No sharp edges — rounded profile prevents snagging on lines and ropes
• Suitable for fastening applications and integration into safety tethers
• ISO 9001 certified manufacturing with 5-year warranty
• Registered design, made in France

The Wichard 2327W is rated with a safe working load (SWL) for nautical applications — note that SWL for marine use is distinct from the Working Load Limit (WLL) for industrial lifting; the safety factor is 5 times the breaking load for industrial use. This hook is designed for marine deck hardware, rigging, and safety applications, not for overhead industrial lifting.
