National Hardware N223-073 Lap Link, Zinc, 3/16 In., 225 Lb

A National Hardware lap link is a zinc-plated steel connector designed to join two lengths of chain together or attach accessories to a chain. This hardware component allows you to extend chains by linking two sections, providing a secure connection without requiring a single longer chain.

The zinc plating protects the steel construction from corrosion. The lap link can be used in both residential and commercial settings where chain extension or accessory attachment is needed. Installation is straightforward—the link closes with a hammer or vise and requires no special tools.
