5 mm stainless steel carabiner – code: 09.187.05 – Osculati

5 mm stainless steel carabiner Osculati (code 09.187.05)

The 5 mm stainless steel carabiner Osculati, identified by code 09.187.05, is a hardware component designed for quick and practical connections in nautical and onboard system applications. The structure in stainless steel and the presence of the stainless steel spring makes it suitable for applications where reliability of the locking mechanism and ease of use in assembly, maintenance, and management of accessories and equipment are required.

This datasheet refers to the variant with D 5 mm. Different versions are available for the same product family (for example without eye o with eye, and options with thimble ring on the eye): the choice of version depends on the type of connection required and the anchoring point provided in the installation.

Features and construction details

Materials and mechanism

• Body in stainless steel, indicated for hardware applications in a nautical environment.
• Stainless steel spring integrated into the locking system, for a quick open/close action.
• Product belonging to the Osculati range, supplier Osculati S.r.l.

Version and configuration

The series includes multiple configurations. Depending on availability/selected variant, the carabiner can be:

• Without eye (linear configuration, useful when a direct connection is desired).
• With eye (for connection on fixing points or on elements requiring an eyelet).
• With ring on the eye (solution oriented to a more protected interface at the connection point).

Available dimensions and data (variant D 5 mm)

For the variant with D 5 mm, the available dimensional and load data are as follows:

• D: 5 mm
• L: 50 mm
• A1: 9 mm
• A: 6 mm
• E: 6.5 mm
• Working load: 71 kg
• Breaking load: 280 kg

Note: load ratings are selection references for the intended application. For critical uses or doubts about sizing, check the installation as a whole, including anchor points, connected components and operating conditions.

Typical applications (nautical and onboard plant engineering)

The snap hook is a versatile connector for applications requiring quick, inspectable attachment. In marine use and maintenance, examples include:

• Connecting onboard accessories and components that require frequent removal.
• Providing temporary attachments during assembly or maintenance.
• Connecting ropes, small cables or hardware compatible with the snap hook's geometry.
• Organising equipment with a quick, orderly attachment system.

The choice between version with eye and without eye allows the component to suit the required interface: direct connection or attachment to a dedicated eye or anchor point. The version with a thimble ring can be useful when a specific eye interface is required.

Operational advantages

• Quick attachment: the spring mechanism makes opening and closing easier during everyday tasks.
• Stainless steel material: suited to marine and onboard use, where hardware is often exposed to the elements.
• More targeted selection: different versions, with or without an eye and with an eye thimble ring, accommodate different installation requirements.
• Dimensions and load ratings available: useful for comparing compatibility with connected components and making an informed choice.

Usage and selection notes

Practical indications

• Verify that the section diameter (D 5 mm) and the available dimensions are compatible with the attachment component, such as rings, eyebolts, links or eyes.
• Ensure the snap hook operates correctly, avoiding arrangements that introduce twisting or loads inconsistent with its intended use.
• Periodically check the component's condition and the operation of the spring, especially with frequent use.
