It is formed from high-grade stainless steel wire into a V profile, with the end section wrap-processed — Katsuichi's Power Grip treatment — so the tip is locked rather than simply resting in place. The V shape resists opening under angled load, and the snap is designed to stretch as a whole under excessive load rather than let the wire pull out of the closure or break outright. Katsuichi publishes a rating for each size, from 60 lb\/test at #1 to 150 lb\/test at #4, so the snap can be matched to leader class instead of guessed at.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-grade stainless steel (SUS) wire that resists deformation under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Grip end processing — the wire tip is wrap-finished to resist pulling through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV-shape body for strength and resistance to accidental opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStretches under excessive load rather than failing suddenly at the closure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 60 lb\/test (#1) to 150 lb\/test (#4), so it can be matched to leader class\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-corrosion finish for saltwater and heavy freshwater use; 7 pieces per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan by Katsuichi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Rig It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeader straight to snap\u003c\/strong\u003e — Tie the leader with a snug knot such as a Palomar or improved clinch, seated in the bend rather than on the closure, and pick a size rated at or above your leader breaking strain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLure changes on the move\u003c\/strong\u003e — Rotate through minnows, vibes, pencils and metal jigs without re-tying and shortening the leader on every swap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSnap to split ring\u003c\/strong\u003e — Clip to the lure's split ring or nose ring so the lure hangs free; a tight moulded eye restricts the swim.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCheck the closure\u003c\/strong\u003e — After a hard fight or a snag, check the wire tip.
