Abstract
A swivel hook including a head portion pivotally connected to the strap connector body, a hook-shape leg projecting from the head portion, and an unhooking-preventing leg projecting from the head portion toward a tip of the hook-shaped leg and resiliently deformable about its own base end. The hook-shaped leg has on its inner surface near its base end a projection engageable with an inner surface of the unhooking-preventing leg within an elastic-limit range of the unhooking-preventing leg when the unhooking-preventing leg is deformed.
