Forgot what it’s for

[Alan2442]

In an effort to go through a lot of my gear in preparation for a move I came across this hook thing and can’t for the life of me remember what it is actually for or called.

Typically I use them on my ridge line under my tarp. I’d like to order a couple more but have no idea what they are called and haven’t been able to find them.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Not 100% sure either but it reminds me of a cotter pin.

Nope just some aluminum hook that has been useful over the years but like I said not even sure what to call it to look for another ‍

It's a specialty s-hook, combination open-closed.
I looked around for you but couldn't come up with much of a match.
Maybe take a look at Nite Ize for some S-Biners?
And there's always the make your own option, looks simple enough.

I’ll give it a shot. Thanks

Maybe a shower curtain hook?

Looks like a carrier hook for track curtains like the ones used in hospitals or for heavy window drapes
