Has anyone here seen Suncor quick attach

I did my entire rig about 5 years ago.

Cool. What kinda boat?

The reason I started the thread is I've noticed that several catalogs,
Defender for example, only list the Suncors with lifelines, as if to say
they're okay for that but for standing rigging you need Hayn or Stalok or
whatever.


The Suncor web site states that the terminals are rated at 90% of
cable strength. Generally, the aim is to build the stay/shroud with
100% of cable strength, or as close as possible.
