If you want the high quality carabiner (for mountain climbing and good for
up to 6000#) REI is a good store. They run $12 to $20.00ea. The cheap, non
rated, zinc plated steel are usually available at Ace hdw or a farmers co-op
store, near where they sell chain. I use a carabiner to clip two sections
of anchor rope together (even though it plainly states on the item "for
climbing and mountaineering use only". It also states the strengths--24 KN
in the long direction closed and 7 while open. One kilo newton = 224.8lbs).

I am looking for Oblong Snap Links. These about approximately 50mm long
and 25 mm wide. They look just like a quick link but funciton like a
snap link. I have searched throught my area for these but I cannot seem
to find them. Would anyone in this group know where I could get some of
these?

Thanks!
