More Information
Hamma™ Top Opening Snapshackles are a direct copy of the universally popular but long-discontinued Navtec design.

Hamma™ manufacture their marine grade stainless steel components in their expansive, state-of-the-art factory in Thailand.
Hamma™ have a highly skilled engineering team dedicated to the design of tensile stainless steel solutions.
The Hamma™ production team undertake every step in the manufacturing process under strict quality control to ISO 9001:2008 with ISO 17025 certification.
Top opening snap shackles have a specific design purpose - they are hinged at the top of the shackle head rather than on the side preventing the released arm from snagging on the line or clew you are trying to set free.
Top-opening snap shackles are ideal for sheets, guys and control lines but not for halyards.
A side-opening snap shackle is preferable for halyards
