Adding a D-Ring to webbed daisy chain (AL Rogue)

[prncinghrse]

Just purchased the Rogue and would like to add an additional D-ring to the shoulder strap. It comes with 1 on each shoulder strap along with what Aqualung calls a webbed daisy chain. It should be easy to add a D-ring but all I find are closed, welded, d-rings. I know I can add a zip-tie but that'll look like crap. I'm looking for suggestions for a stainless attachment to put through the existing fabric loop. Thank you.

Does it have to be steel? Google for grimloc -- pity they didn't go for molle webbing... Or a locking carabiner, those come in steel too.

what Aqualung calls a daisy chain.

Is also know by other names.

Is it "pinched" webbing like on backpacks or just flat 1"? If it's flat, grimlocs should sit on it OK. (If it's "pinched" I bet know how to un-picnh it.)

Pinched webbing. Looks like the grimloc is right as long as a double ender closes over it even though the web isn't flat. Thank you

Two easy, solid solutions:
(1) saw a D-ring at the weld, bend it enough to put through the loop, bend it back.
(2) Get one of these:
Removable Pin D-Ring Angled / Bent Version ,
Removable Pin D-Ring Straight Version ,

Grimlocs have a slot for 1" webbing. it works best on flat tight 1" webbing, but "pinched" webbing may have enough of a flat bit to thread it too. A 2" d-ring isn't going to stay put in there, a grimloc might. Clearly AL does not subscribe to "suicide clip" theory as that webbing is for 'biners (or they believe their customers are rich enough to buy locking climbing rust-proof ones). If you don't go for that, you might be better off with just a basic split keyring in there.

I picked up a couple of Piranha Dive removable pin bent d-rings. Should be right. Thank you
