Long-term corrosion resistance – Thanks to 304 stainless steel construction
304 stainless steel offers high hardness and a stable alloy surface that resists rust, wear and general corrosion in common environments. The ball cap finish is smooth to resist scratching.
Durable material keeps the fastener functioning through repeated use, cutting maintenance and replacement frequency.

A D-ring is fitted at the cap and a lanyard line is supplied to tether the pin, reducing the chance of misplacement during disassembly or transport. The lanyard also makes carrying easier.
