A Compact Parrot Clasp for Keychain Assembly
This spring-operated parrot clasp is intended for a removable connection between a keychain, decorative zipper pull accessory or narrow fabric tab and an appropriately sized ring. The important feature is its narrow lower loop, not the overall metal-body length. Choose it when a compact appearance and a compatible spring gate are more important than a large strap channel.
Loop Width: 0.26 in, Not 0.39 in
The clasp measures 34.8 × 13.8 mm (1.37 × 0.54 in) externally. Inside its lower attachment loop, clear width is 6.7 mm (0.26 in). The inner cavity at the spring hook measures 8.4 × 20 mm (0.33 × 0.79 in). A 10 mm (0.39 in) webbing strap will not become compatible merely because the older listing called the model a '1 cm hook'. Sample the sewn strap and its finished fold.
Matching Rings and Spring Action
The ring must pass through the gate without bending it, then rest inside the hook cavity while leaving the spring free to close. A thin-wire ring and a thick-wire ring with the same outside diameter can behave differently. Check the finished connection for accidental gate pressure and abrasive edges that might snag woven tape.
Zamak Alloy and Color Options
The metal body is zamak with Nickel, Black Nickel and Gold surface options. Black Nickel is the dark grey/gunmetal finish, not a type of stainless steel. Product images are a helpful guide, yet matched trims should be approved side-by-side with real samples. The finish names do not establish a tensile-load or corrosion-resistance rating.
Assembly Methods and Purchasing Quantities
Feed the finished narrow strap end through the lower 6.7 mm (0.26 in) opening and secure it by stitching or another construction appropriate to the material. The hook itself does not need a snap-fastener setting die. The listing's minimum order is 200 pieces, with price-break quantities of 1,000 and 2,500. Match the selected finish to an actual keyring and strap before repeating a bulk order.
When to Select a Larger Clasp
Where a project requires a significantly wider strap connection, compare the larger model in the same parrot-clasp family: its technical passage is 10.3 mm (0.41 in), not the 6.7 mm (0.26 in) opening here. Verify both the actual strap width and the spring-gate geometry before substituting any hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
What strap width does this clasp accept?
The lower opening measures 6.7 mm (0.26 in); the finished strap needs a physical fit check.

What is the internal hook space?
8.4 × 20 mm (0.33 × 0.79 in).
