The National Hardware N222-968 Cattle Snap is a compact, durable tie-down solution designed for ranchers, farmers, and livestock handlers. Built from corrosion-resistant nickel-plated malleable iron, this snap provides a reliable anchor point for securing cattle, horses, goats, and other farm animals during feeding, treatment, transport, and routine handling. The smooth round swivel eye rotates freely to prevent rope or chain from knotting during movement, while the spring-loaded latch engages with minimal effort and releases quickly when needed.
This snap streamlines animal handling by offering secure holding power without snagging or rusting, extending the life of your equipment and keeping livestock safe. Its low-profile 1-inch by 4-1/8-inch design fits into tight spaces without creating obstructions.
