Quicklink Breaking Strength Test

[@gearyschindel4964]

Nice vidoe and interesting results. Howeve, have you tried to cross load a quick link so that the webbing is on the screwgate. I've had people tell me they are equally strong in all directions and others tell me that the gates are not any stronger than a carabiner.

What quicklinks did you use for the tests? I've been using a single 'Reese' brand quicklink(They are 5/16" $4USD for a pack of two rated at 5000lbs) to hold my rigging plate to my sling on my 75m setup. I've never had an issue and I do a lot of bouncing. Also, my sling connects to the quicklink with a "tri-load" of about 45-60 degrees. I never let the angle get any higher then that. I'd love to see some tests with a 60 degree tri-load on some quicklinks!

It would be great if you guys could do a test video on a fiddle stick which is made out of Lexan plastic and generally used for repelling inside of canyons and easily retrieving your rope.

if you send us one, we'll do it.

' what grade number on this chainlink

[@calebsk8r96]

Really fascinating how the closed quicklink failed!

Ótimos videos

[@vproduction]

these quicklinks are so good for anchor/chain/rope connection. as rocking motion of the boat cause normal D shackle to undo itself no matter what u do. last time i was checking the very tight, locktite D shackle between the rope and chain was loose. lucky find out early or else lose all chain and anchor. gonna swap to these will have no problem

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what is the recommended minimum kN rating for rigging?

[@SlacktivityCh]

This depends on how much force you wanna put into the rig. We recommend a safety factor of 4 for most pieces. Means if you wanna have peak forces of 6kN, your minimal breaking load should be 24kN.

Cool thank you. I was going to ask more questions then found your video "Forces in Slacklines 1 - Static Forces & Tensioning" and I will continue to watch the rest in the Forces in Slacklines series.

' depend on size and weight

alguém traduz ? ^^
