Breakaway Clasp & How to Use

What is the breakaway clasp?

The breakaway clasp is an optional feature built into the Grunchy lanyard.

Under normal use, the clasp keeps the lanyard connected. If the lanyard is exposed to sufficiently strong pulling force, the clasp is designed to separate — this may help reduce the risk of the lanyard remaining tightly caught around the wearer.

The clasp can then be reconnected by pressing the two parts back together. To keep the mechanism working reliably, avoid opening it unnecessarily during everyday use.

You can select the breakaway clasp option on the product page before adding your Grunchy to the cart. It is integrated into the finished product and cannot be added afterwards.

The breakaway clasp is an additional safety feature, but it does not eliminate all risks and should not be treated as protective equipment.

Do I need a breakaway clasp?

The safety breakaway clasp is optional, and the right choice depends on how and where you plan to use your Grunchy.

You may prefer a breakaway clasp if you intend to use it in an environment where the lanyard could become caught on an object — for example, in healthcare, childcare, or other busy professional settings.

A Grunchy without a breakaway clasp may be suitable when it is mainly carried over the shoulder, across the body, around the wrist or in your hand.

Always consider your own use, working environment and any applicable workplace safety requirements before choosing your Grunchy.

Can the breakaway clasp be added after purchase?

No. The safety breakaway clasp is integrated into the Grunchy during production and cannot be added to the finished product afterwards.

If you would like your Grunchy to include a breakaway clasp, select “With breakaway clasp” on the product page before adding the product to your cart.

Please check your selected option carefully before completing your order.
