Farmer/rancher's joy. This is a very large clip at 6 inches but very easy to use to move around the hanging bracket and hang hay fodder. , hoses, etc. There are a few other carabiners that don't do the job. Most of them are either too fragile or too heavy to open and close them every day. 2 STARS AWAY: While I love this style of carabiners, the silver clasp broke one of all the carabiners I own. Definitely not worth the $9 I paid!
