Marine-grade 304 stainless holds up in wet, salty, and outdoor conditions without rusting, which is why it's the right ring for gear that lives in the water — lobster and crab traps, oyster cages and bags, bungee terminations, predator netting. Fourteen-gauge wire gives you a stronger crimp and more holding power than a 15G ring, at the cost of a little more hand effort to close. The blunt tip closes clean without tearing mesh or cutting your hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSet them with hand pliers for repairs and small runs, or load a pneumatic hog ring gun for high-volume production. Add our blue-handled stainless hog ring pliers below — they work rings from 3\/8″ through 1″.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e14G or 15G — which one?\u003c\/strong\u003e Reach for 14-gauge on wire mesh, trap and cage assembly, heavier netting, and anywhere the joint carries load. Step down to 15-gauge for lighter fabrics, finer mesh, and high-count production runs where you want easier closing and more rings to the pound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Ocean","offers":[{"title":"3\/8\" \/ 1 Pound","offer_id":46867668762785,"sku":"HR125","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/8\" \/ 5 Pound","offer_id":46867690324129,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/8\" \/ 10 Pound","offer_id":46867690356897,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/8\" \/ 25 Pounds","offer_id":46867690389665,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2\" \/ 1 Pound","offer_id":46867688161441,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2\" \/ 5 Pound","offer_id":46867690422433,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2\" \/ 10 Pound","offer_id":46867690455201,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2\" \/ 25 Pounds","offer_id":46867690487969,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/4\" \/ 1 Pound","offer_id":46867688194209,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/4\" \/ 5 Pound","offer_id":46867690520737,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/4\" \/ 10 Pound","offer_id":46867690553505,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/4\" \/ 25 Pounds","offer_id":46867690586273,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\" \/ 1 Pound","offer_id":46867688226977,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\" \/ 5 Pound","offer_id":46867690619041,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\" \/ 10 Pound","offer_id":46867690651809,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\" \/ 25 Pounds","offer_id":46867690684577,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0639\/3144\/9505\/files\/Hog-Rings_17368126-5f26-43b9-ab81-6878c1d1a020.jpg?v=1736282755","url":"https:\/\/ketchamsupply.com\/products\/loose-stainless-steel-hog-rings-14-gauge-copy","provider":"Ketcham Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
