Magnetism Most clips, snaps, Hooks and other 316 Stainless Steel Hardware may have slightly magnetic properties induced during the manufacturing process; however this has no effect on the products corrosive properties, strength or performance.

A word about breaking and working loads: Our Wicked Branded breaking load limits (BLL) are calculated and tested. Working load limits are never fixed. These limits will vary based on the manner in which you use the steel hardware and the safety factor you want to use based on the activity.

For extreme safety that could result in injury or death we recommend you use only 25% of the BLL for all your stainless steel products. For other applications you can easily go up to 75% of the BLL. Please use good judgement.
