Zusammenfassung:A fastener for releasably securing a member including a body including a shank and a recess, the recess configured for receiving the member. A gate is mounted to slide axially on the shank between a closed position closing a mouth of the recess for retaining the member, and an open position. Resilient means engages the gate and the shank to urge the gate to the closed position, and latches are mounted on opposing sides of the gate, wherein each latch is self-closing and engages the body for holding the gate in the closed position providing an auto-locking fastener that, for greater security, requires three independent actions for release.
