Source for strong "S" hooks?

May 24, 2012 3 Replies

Having put away our swing seat for the winter, got it out today and discovered one of the S hooks which holds the chain to the chair is missing.



Size is about 5cm top to bottom, probably about 3-4mm guage metal. Obviously needs to be quite strong to take the shared weight of 3 people plus the chair.



Any good sources? Ebay has some that might be work a punt, but other reliable sources gratefully received!

These?

load 20kg, so even if the logic holds true that each hook hands 1/nth (= where n=3Dnumber of hooks) of the total load, I can't see them being rated = for me, my wife and my kids sitting on the seat at the same time.

Or are there some others which I've not discovered at Screwfix?

Butcher's hook?

Though a quick shop suggest you'll get the toy ones. As butchers still use them the real ones must exist somewhere.
