Product Overview
What the S2430 Is
The S2430 is a spring snap hook produced by Honke Hardware in Longyan City, Fujian Province, China. It is made in stainless steel 304/316 and finished by polishing. Sizes are 6mm/8mm/10mm/12mm/14mm/16mm/18mm/20mm.
It belongs to the spring hooks range, which covers 5 items. Spring snap hooks are the fastest way to make a rope, chain or webbing connection that a person can open and close by hand. Honke forms them in 304 and 316 stainless steel from 4 mm to 20 mm and finishes them by polishing.
Design is handled as OEM & ODM work, so dimensions, colour and marking can be set against your drawing or your existing sample rather than taken from a fixed list.
Key Benefits
Why Buyers Specify This Item
A finish that cannot flake
Stainless parts are polished rather than coated, so a scratch does not expose a different metal underneath.
Consistent appearance across the range
Shackles, plates, hooks and clips leave the same plant with the same finish, which matters when they sit together on a boat or a balustrade.
Samples before you commit
Free samples available with freight prepaid by the buyer. Sample approval sets the reference for the production run.

- Cartons are checked against the packing and label format agreed for your market

Use Guide
Fitting and Caring for the S2430
- Confirm the grade before you order. A polished part gives no visual clue to its material, so put stainless steel 304/316 on the purchase order line rather than only in the email thread.
- Match the size to the mating part. Sizes here are 6mm/8mm/10mm/12mm/14mm/16mm/18mm/20mm, so measure the rope, chain, webbing or thread the item has to work with before you specify.
- Keep the material family consistent. Where this item sits in a permanently wet joint with another metal, use the same family throughout to avoid galvanic reaction.
- Load it in the direction it was designed for. Connecting hardware loses capacity sharply when pulled off axis. Where load direction varies, choose a body shape made for it.
- Rinse and operate moving parts. Gates, swivels and threads seize when salt is left to dry in them. Fresh water and regular operation is most of the maintenance.
- Replace rather than repair. A gate that no longer springs shut or a thread that will not seat is retired, not adjusted.
