Promar 4 Arm Trap Harness

I have to replace my crab harnesses every two years because of rust in metal carabiners. I am stoked that this harness uses extremely durable nylon clasps... the central ring is made of steel but should not rust as much as previous harnesses. The harnesses performs well in Pacific with ~50 pounds of weight per pull.

I bought this to revitalize an old discarded trap I found in the swamp. Worked like a charm but then I lost the accursed trap so IDK how long they would have worked but I saw no reason to suspect they were going to give out on a light collapsible blue crabber.

This harness is easy to use and reasonably durable if your traps aren't too heavy. They do wear out, so it's not a bad idea to back it up with an extra line, especially as it ages. The heavy solid steel ring at the terminus of the arms limits configuration options a bit, so I cut if off with bolt cutters and replaced with a lighter stainless steel quick link. The ring is quite heavy and causes my harness float to partially sink. Also, it doesn't need to be 30x stronger than the plastic carabiners that attach to the trap. However, I'd guess most people will be happy enough with the solid ring.

I ordered this 4 Arm Trap Harness by Promar, to make comparisons to other Trap Harness I have purchased. It is comprised of four plastic, but soundly made snaps a quality assembled Harness with SS compressed clamps rings to keep the nylon rope loops secure. Should last almost indefinitely the trap does not get bound to the bottom mud. This is not too pricey at $8.49 per harness and not as well laid out as other more expensive harnesses, but it should suffice for recreational crabbing, as I do it. I love it.

I started crabbing in Florida a few months ago and I bought these harnesses for my Blue Crab traps. I didn't want to spend too much as I'm new to the sport and I want to get a good introductory product.I have been very happy with the harnesses so far. They have held up really well so far after months of use with no breaks in the rope or clips. They attach very tightly to the and I don't feel like they're gonna fall off when I set my traps.I highly recommend these harnesses.

I Love this harness. after my 1st purchase and use I now use this for ALL my traps!! Its Sturdy so no worries about breaking loose if caught on something, it holds up well in salt water but best of all NO TANGLES! This Harness Always Pulls UP my 4 door traps, and is heavy enough to LOWER The Doors! when casting. Note: I also use it on my round nets & my two door traps ( I just remove the extra clips). For my cast line I use a parachute 50 yards utility line that I buy the line at wallmart for $6.00 in the camping section- Again- no worries about breaking loose if caught on something & NO TanglesBottom line- Between this harness and the parachute line my 4 door & 2 door traps OPEN and Close properly, My wire ring nets pull up quick and sturdy my crabbing has become so much more fun and productive. I always catch crabs!!! Like I said I use this harness for ALL MY Traps...

I ordered these to add to our crab pot system and I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of such an inexpensive harness.

Works well however after 1 six hour use the main ring showed surface rust , if you’re selling a product intended for use in salt water perhaps you should use better material
