Parachute & Paraglider Harness Hardware
15 products
This category covers the small metal parts that make up parachute and paraglider harness systems. It includes aluminium alloy parachute carabiners and connectors rated 18 and 20 kN, stainless steel 304 and 316 square quick links from 3.5 mm to 16 mm and a 9 mm delta link, a two-part aluminium harness buckle rated 12 kN, stainless webbing slides and rings, triangular webbing plates and adapter plates with T-shaped tabs, a quick hook, a mini pulley for light lines and a U-shaped bracket. Several of the aluminium parts are pictured in anodised colours. In Europe, paragliding harnesses are tested to EN 1651 and emergency parachutes to EN 12491, with hardware usually qualified as part of the complete system. All parts are available OEM or private label, or made to a customer drawing.

Frequently asked questions
- Which parts in this range are load-rated?
- Strengths are published for the A776-2 carabiner (20 kN), A777 connector (18 kN), A835 buckle (12 kN), 613SS-3 webbing slide (15 kN) and the 7352S and 7353S quick links, which have safe working loads and breaking loads. The other parts are specified by material and weight, and the PA-670 quick hook and PA-665 mini pulley are accessory parts for light cords. Strength data should be requested before any unrated part is used in a load path.
- How are parachute and paraglider harness components certified?
- In Europe, paragliding harnesses are tested to EN 1651 and emergency parachutes for paragliding to EN 12491. These standards apply to the finished harness or parachute, so buckles, links and connectors are normally qualified by the brand as part of its own test programme. The manufacturer of the hardware supports this with dimensions, material data and test results agreed in the specification.
- What do SWL and BL mean on a quick link?
- SWL is the safe working load, the maximum load the link should carry in normal use, and BL is the breaking load at which it fails in test. In the 7353S table, the breaking load is five times the SWL in every size, for example 980 kg SWL and 4900 kg BL at 9 mm. Designers should work from the SWL and their own required safety factor, not from the breaking load.
- Should I specify stainless steel 304 or 316?
- Both are austenitic stainless steels with good general corrosion resistance. Grade 316 contains molybdenum, which improves resistance to chlorides, so it is preferred for parts exposed to salt water or coastal air. The 7352S and 7353S quick links are available in either grade.
- Can parts be customised for a harness design?
- Yes. Aluminium parts can be anodised in customer colours and marked, and slot widths, plate outlines, hole sizes and bracket heights can be adapted to suit specific webbing and line layouts. Power Honour works from customer drawings and can advise on manufacturing processes such as forging, machining or stamping for each part.
- What should an RFQ for parachute hardware include?
- Provide the part code or drawing, material and grade, finish and colour, webbing widths or cord diameters, and the loads each part must carry. State the standard or test programme the finished harness or parachute must pass, and the quantities per part. For quick links, list the sizes and quantity of each.
