Fehr's SAFE-3 Lighting Restraint Cables can be attached to fixtures to guard against them falling when the primary method of attachment fails.

Safety cables are mandatory in most stage rigging applications as they afford an extra measure of security and protection from possible support structure failure.
The snap hook is a non-rated part without a lock and is not made to any military specification.
