Anyone have experience with these? I'm curious as to if the 2 3/8 links will fit the mb #2 twist link chain.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Straight machine they will fit, twist link will probably not because of the twist.

I do love these and won't use anything else.

Do you happen to know if they fit the mid-chain links? That's where I tend to run into trouble with things since they have a bit less space than the end link. Thanks!

They fit on trap swivel bodies and can fit inside jhooks too.

Or take a punch and spread open the link you want to use.

They're like a quick link but a little less permanent. I was a big fan of the 3/16th quick links but after wrenching on them a few times, they're kind of used up... I'll be giving the sleep EZs a try for when I'm looping chain around trees where they'll be removed at the end of the season. Hoping to get a lot of life out of these.

I've read that 2 3/8 size will hold up against the toughest coyote (Although these are going on fisher traps) and got confirmation from kaatz bros that it will fit #2 straight link. I'd imagine the 2 3/4 will fit #3.

I wish there was a good resource for solid measurements on parts. Often times I don't know exactly how something will fit until it is in my hands. I had to try a few companies before anyone would confirm that those would fit.
