Maillon Rapide Quick Links are used as connectors for personal protective equipment (PPE) and for rigging. They can be opened to easily attach components and when closed provide a secure connection. They are ideal for uses where an openable connector is needed for components which are not frequently disassembled. Once connected the gate can be tightened with a wrench to provide a semi-permanent connection.

The Long Oval Quick Links have larger gate openings to make it easier to attach to larger diameter objects.
