Upgrade your next lanyard, key chain, or badge holder with the 1/2 Inch Lanyard Swivel Hook from Country Brook Design. Built for everyday carry, this compact snap hook gives you a quick and dependable way to clip keys, ID cards, and small gear to a strap you already own. Its swivel head turns a full 360 degrees, so your lanyard stays free of twists and tangles while you move through your day. Whether you are finishing a single handmade project or stocking up for a large batch order, you get hardware that looks polished and works the way it should. Country Brook Design stands behind every order with careful quality checks and a friendly support team ready to help you choose the right fit.
Discover the details that make this hook a reliable choice. Each piece features a sturdy iron core finished in bright nickel plating for a mirror-like shine that pairs well with any strap color. A square loop at the base accepts 1/2 inch wide webbing, ribbon, or leather strap, while a coiled swivel joint connects the loop to a spring-gated snap hook. The gate opens easily with your thumb and closes firmly to hold keys, rings, and badges in place. Measuring roughly 2 1/4 inches from end to end, the hook stays light and low-profile, so it will not weigh down a lanyard or feel bulky in your pocket.
Explore the many ways this swivel hook can fit into your next build. Crafters use it to make custom lanyards, key fobs, ID name badge holders, camera straps, and purse straps. Schools, offices, event planners, and trade show teams appreciate how quickly it helps turn plain webbing into a finished badge lanyard. It also works well for attaching small pouches, coin purses, or zipper pulls to bags and belt loops. For the best results, sew or rivet your strap securely through the square loop and check the gate and swivel often for wear. Remember that this hardware is designed for light-duty, everyday use. It is not suitable for climbing, lifting, towing, or any critical load-bearing application, and it should never be used to restrain a pet. Do not exceed 25% of the tensile strength of your finished assembly, and replace any hook that shows bending, gate damage, or worn plating.
