Does anyone have a source for cheap spring quick links? I need another 100 for float trapping but for 60$, I was wondering if anyone has a better priced place. I use them for connecting the trap to the float itself so it doesn't need to be anything super heavy duty as it will be only used for 'rats. I want to keep it quick links or something similar so I can take my traps off my float at the end of the season otherwise I would staple them directly to it. Thanks in advance!

Not sure if you would like them, but you could get some of the split rings for about half the price.I use the large ones for coyotes.They only take a few seconds to detach.

Personally, I stopped using the SPRING type quick links went back to the screw types...Paul Dobbins sells the type I use 3/16s size I believe.
I had issues with rusted weakened springs and gave up on them.

Try using Toggles from Wildlife Control Supply, basically a hot link you can see those on YouTube. As to how they work. Be fast to take trap on and off about $20 a 100

FnT has them for less than 35 cents if you buy a hundred.

Yep, if you're worried about that, double wrap and tie. Plenty good for a rat.

Boss Paul sells them as cheap as anybody else, and cheaper than most others. Click on "The Store" on the bottom of the talk page. $37/100
