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!

You can get those at a climbing supply store. I recommend Gander
Mountain, but I have an agenda, I am the majority share holder for
that company.

I did not find them on the Gander Mountain website.

I'm not sure if these are what you are talking about but try
the Petzl carabiner at

Good Luck

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).
