Field Repair Buckles for Straps 1Inch, Quick Side Release Adjustable Buckle for Straps 1 inch 1pc Quick Release Buckles(1PC)

I have a Swiss gear backpack that I bought 2 years ago. The bag is in perfect condition even with 2 years of daily use with a 30lbs load. The bag looks brand new still. Well about a month ago I wasn’t paying attention when I put the bag in my back seat and closed the car door. The strap buckle got crushed in between the door and frame. I called Swiss gear and they said they couldn’t send a new buckle without a receipt, which I no longer have. So the options were either toss a perfectly good backpack with a busted buckle and get a new $60 bag, or try to find a way to fix it. This buckle combo worked perfect! I love that they included an extra pin. The design is very well done. I just would’ve made 1 small change to the design. On the strap buckle, the opening on the front (not the opening where the pin slides in an out), the gap is a good size to accommodate almost all straps, but if it was 1/2mm x 1/2 mm bigger, then it would accommodate the Swiss gear backpacks strap ends much better. The Swiss gear backpack straps have a plastic pull loop mounted on the ends to make it easier to pull the straps tight. The plastic pull does not come off (believe me, I tried). The gap on the replacement buckle was so tight it took a lot of force for me to push the plastic strap pull through the small gap. I’m surprised it didn’t break, and I’m surprised I was even able to force it through to begin with. The new buckle definitely won’t ever slip back off if I need to take it off. It’ll have to be cut off. The new strap buckle works great though. It grips tighter on the strap than the original buckle on the other side. It looks clean and feels stronger than the original. It’s an extremely clever design with the removable pin and I’m super impressed by it. I’ll update this review if anything changes in the future.

Yes, pants. Not a backpack as reported elsewhere but under much more stress as a belt buckle. Remove the broken, failed, original. Both pieces. Thread the open end belt through the right (from your right) clasp. Eezy-beezy. As to the left part, note the loop sewed into the belt. Clear it as needed perhaps with a hammer to the old plastic part. As said above, remove old parts. Then back off the screw to release the rod and pull it out. Do not drop! Insert the left belt with the loop into the clasp and re-insert the rod, locking it into place. Prior to tightening the rod down, suggest a drop or 2 of lock-tight lest the rod back off over time. Use a fine screwdriver lest ye strip the head. Hand tighten only - this is plastic, after all. Wait for the lock-tight to set up and voila! Better than new.

Used the ladder part to replace a sewn-in buckle on my favorite motorcycle backpack. Easy fix due to the metal pins and seems very strong. I’m using the snap buckle on my cover where other’s have failed to maintain their grip. Great design and and solid manufacturing.

Pretty crappy buckle. It cheap and slips out, but for like $6 I’m not super upset about it. It will be good to hold onto for an emergency repair.

At some point last year when I put my hunting backpack away one of the buckles broke. I was heartbroken since this was my favorite backpack. My wife said to buy a generic buckle and sew it in place. I stumbled across this and it worked great. It was strong enough to hold my shoulder strap, it was easily installed, and it was a great value compared to all the others.

Took all of four minutes to put it in place of my broken diaper bag buckle - half of which was spent finding a small Philips screwdriver - super easy. Two tips: 1) You’ll need a small Phillips screwdriver (as mentioned above). 2) Put the bottom strap in before attaching the loop with the pin provided (it becomes too tight a squeeze if your strap is like mine and is thicker at the end to keep the edges from fraying). Feels sturdy - stronger than the original buckle by far. Was definitely worth the buy. I will be buying more as the need arises!

Doesn’t stay clipped, pulls apart with hardly any force, unfortunately I didn’t try it until the return window had closed. If you happen to take a chance on these, test the buckle closure ASAP to see if you received a defective one as I did…. Wish I’d watched the video review of this item showing the exact problem I’m having, do yourself a favor and take a look at that video before ordering

I bought this to replace a useless metal hook type clasp on a sling bag. It worked out perfectly. It's very sturdy and well made. There are no instructions on how to install it but it's easy enough to figure out.

Good buckle but it is plastic.
