Uni-Quik #3 Brass Swivel Snap with Male End Quick Release

What it does
Loose gear is the enemy of a clean, streamlined setup. Dangling gauges, lights and accessories snag on reefs, drag through sand and tangle in lines. A brass swivel snap gives you a secure clip point, and the swivel lets the attached gear turn freely so lines and hoses don't twist up.
The quick-release male end is what makes this piece handy. It connects to a matching UNI-QUIK female fitting, so you can detach a piece of gear from its mount without unclipping the whole snap. That's useful when you want to hand off a light or camera, or remove gear on the boat without fighting a clip with cold or gloved hands.
Why brass
Brass holds up well in salt water and is a common choice for dive hardware. Rinse it after every dive and it should give you long, dependable service.

Before ordering
This is the male end of a quick-release system. Check the retailer’s product details to confirm whether you also need the matching female fitting for your setup.
Usage notes
Attach it to a D-ring or accessory point where you can reach it easily. Rinse the swivel and release mechanism with fresh water after salt-water dives to keep them moving smoothly.
FGSS take: Small hardware makes a big difference. A clean, secure setup keeps your gear close, your trim tidy and your hands free.
