The SNAP combi 20 buckle for 20mm belts combines the inner part of the SNAP buckle 20 with a SNAP male screw (with an outer screw) or SNAP male spring (an outer spring).
One practical use case is to attach an open backpack chest strap to a shoulder strap when the chest strap is not in use.
Modern backpacks, bags, travel gear, and professional equipment require reliable hardware that combines strength, convenience, and durability. That’s why FIDLOCK magnetic clasps have become widely popular among premium manufacturers. The SNAP Buckle 20 is designed specifically for 20mm wide belts and combines proprietary magnetic-mechanical technology, convenient one-handed operation, and high-security fastening. Thanks to automatic magnetic positioning, the clasp connects easily without the need for precise alignment, and a mechanical lock ensures a secure hold even under intensive use.
What is the SNAP Buckle 20?
The SNAP Buckle 20 is part of FIDLOCK’s SNAP Buckle line and is a larger version of the model for 15mm belts. The clasp is designed for use with 20mm wide belts and features a ladder-lock buckle, allowing for quick adjustments without the need for additional hardware.
The design combines powerful neodymium magnets with a mechanical lock. When the clasp halves are brought together, magnets automatically align the elements, after which a mechanical lock securely locks the connection.
This solution is significantly more convenient than classic plastic latches and makes using the product as comfortable as possible.

How FIDLOCK technology works
The key feature of the SNAP Buckle 20 is the proprietary FIDLOCK magnetic-mechanical technology.
When the two parts of the clasp are brought together, built-in neodymium magnets automatically attract the elements and precisely align them. The user doesn’t need to worry about finding the correct position—the connection occurs almost automatically.
After contact, a mechanical lock is activated, holding the clasp securely in place even during active user movement or under heavy load.
A convenient sideways sliding motion is used for opening. This mechanism allows for quick one-handed opening while maintaining a high level of protection against accidental opening.
The combination of magnetic positioning and mechanical locking is the main advantage of FIDLOCK products.
Design Features
One of the strengths of the SNAP Buckle 20 is its thoughtful design.
The clasp is made of durable reinforced PA66GF polyamide, which is highly resistant to mechanical stress, moisture, UV radiation, and temperature changes. The use of engineering materials ensures stable operation even in difficult operating conditions.
The model has compact dimensions – approximately 46.8 x 27.5 x 13.1 mm thick, weighs approximately 15 grams, and has a static breaking load of up to 540 N, making it an excellent choice for everyday and professional gear.
The design allows the buckle to be attached to both single- and double-layer webbing, expanding its application options.
