Which option is another term for industrial clips?

• A. Industrial clips (also known as snap hooks)
• B. Screw gate carabiners
• C. Auto locking carabiners (twist collar and pull gate)
• D. Supersafe carabiners (push up, twist collar, pull gate)

Answer: (A)

Industrial clips are commonly called snap hooks in rigging and industrial safety contexts. The term “snap hook” describes a hook with a spring-loaded or hinged gate that snaps closed, which is exactly what many people refer to when they say industrial clips. This naming is widely used in AE and climbing training, making snap hooks the familiar synonym for industrial clips.

The other options describe different locking carabiners with specific mechanisms (screw gate, auto-locking twist collar, push-pull systems). While these are also connectors used in safety setups, they are not the term typically used to replace “industrial clips,” so they aren’t the correct synonym in this context.
