I have loads of these links and know where you can buy in the uk. I may even have some spare ones kicking around. We use them for rigging/ flying hardware in my line of work.

How many do you need?

A useful newb!!!!
 
They're called kuplex TL7's from memory. I'll have to check the SWL tomorrow when I get to work but they're at least 2t with a 7.1 ratio.

I'm based in solihull and the company we buy from are based in brum.
 
Search on google for kuplex TL7 and you'll find them....just checked. The ones I found though seem expensive to what we pay.

Let me know how many u want and I'll see what I've got lying around.
 
jeepers.... 45 quid for 3 of them! :eek:

looks like i need another change of plan...:confused:

solihull, a fair old treck, unless they r really cheap... :)
 
We call them 'hammerlocks' here.
I, and most of the fleet, use them to join lengths of 16mm anchor chain together.
Very strong, but get replaced annually.
I have never had one break, and swear by them.
There is a piece missing in the link pic, the pin is held by a sprung collar/tube so it can't fall out.
