Split Rings

[RHB]

I ordered some spilt rings from a supplier that was supposed to be spring steel but got a thick ring that when you open the ring to put a blade on it stays open. Does anyone know of quality rings that you can open and they return back to the original shape? I'm looking for No 1 size. I use these on underspins mostly 1/32, 1/16, and 1/8 so need a light weight rings that works.

Thanks, rhb

Yeah I prefer a thinner wire split ring. They are easier to put on and easier to close back if a gap happens. Simply take a pair of small needle nose pliers, close the gap and slightly twist so that that split ring overlap each other.

Here is where I get mine. Last time I bought, 1000 were like $20 something.

I use really light weight ones from Hagens and I ONLY use them for attaching blades to swivels no hooks Economy Split Rings- Size 1/0 the 1/0 size is more like a 1.
