CONNECTOR COMPATIBILITY LIMITATIONS
Malta Dynamics equipment must be coupled only to compatible connectors that
are suitable to your application. Ensure all connections are compatible in size,

CFR 1926.502 prohibits the use of snap hooks to engage to objects unless the
following requirements are met:
• Snap hook must be a locking type snap hook.
• Snap hook must be explicitly designed for such a connection. “Designed
for” means that the manufacturer of the snap hook specifically created the
snap hook to be used to connect to the equipment in question.
Use of a non-locking snap hook can result in rollout (a process by which a snap
hook or carabiner unintentionally disengages from another connector or object to
which it is coupled. ANSI Z359.0- 2007). Malta Dynamics connectors (snap hooks
and carabiners) are designed to be used only as specified in each product’s user’s
