Questions & Answers

Are these Buckles of a larger size?

They're not very big, and they didn't work out very well. I was able to get one of them to work, but the other one had broken.

For the sake of completeness, Each packet contains ONE buckle (both male and female parts). right?

correct. a single buckle that includes both male and female parts.

How much weight can this buckle support, and would it be able to fix a 60-pound hiking backpack strap or would it immediately break?

This is the backpack that my daughter is carrying to school. It's still in good condition. Her backpack weighs a ton. It's where she keeps her belongings when she's not at home.

3/4 of a version: Is it necessary to break the bar in order to secure the buckle? It isn't flexible or hinged in any way. I couldn't tell if I had accidentally broken it or if it was on purpose. ?

All I had to do was break the one from the item I was replacing. It's not the one I bought. It was hinged, as you can see in the photo.

Selected User Reviews For GEAR AID Snap Bar Buckle

The buckle had to be adjusted to fit during installation
3/5

It works perfectly once it's been installed. This buckle is well-made, and it works smoothly once installed. My issue is with the hinged bar, which has a non-sliding mechanism. It has a functional bump molded into the end that makes it bigger than it needs to be. In my case, the hinged bar of the buckle wouldn't fit through the sewn webbing loop on my bag until I sawed/filed off the "nub. " "The installation appears to be long-lasting, and the connection appears to be strong. ".

This is a fantastic replacement buckle
5/5

This item was purchased to replace a broken buckle on a folding yard chair's foot rest. This version is far superior to the original in terms of quality and power. I also appreciated not having to deal with vinyl straps, such as cutting, sewing, and so on.

It's very functional and comfortable
5/5

My favorite backpack, designed by Ogio, is one of my possessions. The chest buckle snapped, and Ogio offered no assistance in replacing it. I found this one on Amazon after measuring my strap and old buckle. It's a great fit and performs admirably. A++.

Life is more secure
5/5

This is for you if you need to replace a broken buckle but don't want to mess with sewing it back together. It performs admirably and is extremely simple to set up. It is, however, more expensive than a simple buckle - You're giving up your time and effort in exchange for convenience.

It's great that these exist
5/5

These are incredibly simple to put together and do not require any sewing. I came across them by chance and hoped they were the ones who created these. and, to my relief, they do, for a price that is well worth it.

Excellent value for money
5/5

Excellent value for money. If you're going on a long hike, it's a good idea to have a couple extra buckles in your backpack.

I'm glad they exist because I have an expensive pacsafe bag that I use frequently for travel and was devastated when the chest clip broke
5/5

Pacsafe couldn't help, but I found these on the internet and they worked perfectly.
