A826-25 Aluminium Quick Release Buckle

Both halves of the A826-25 are aluminium. The female buckle carries an anodised finish, and the buckle is listed for both 19 mm and 25 mm webbing, two narrow strap widths widely used on belts, bag straps and light equipment carriers.

The published specification does not include a minimum breaking strength. The A826-25 should therefore be chosen for convenient closure rather than as a safety-critical component; if a buyer intends to use it where a person or a significant load depends on the buckle, a strength rating has to be defined and confirmed by testing before release.

Points to settle in an RFQ include which of the two webbing widths is required, the anodising colour on the female buckle, the finish wanted on the male half and any marking. The A826-25 can be produced as OEM or private-label hardware, and the geometry can be adapted to a customer drawing.
