Abstract
In a swivel snap hook of synthetic resin, a unitary hook member has a hook body and a resiliently deformable closure tongue molded integrally therewith, a free end of the closure tongue being, as the latter is in a free form, disposed inwardly of a free end of the hook body with a relatively small gap therebetween. In use, as the closure tongue is depressed inwardly against its resilience by a ring-shaped article to be threaded onto the hook body, the free end of the closure tongue is spaced wider from the free end of the hook body to open the latter. In production, the unitary hook member is molded on a specific mold in such a state or condition that the free end of the closure tongue is disposed inwardly of the free end of the hook body with the small gap therebetween.
