Default Where to find toggle catches for outdoor use

I'm after some toggle catches or similar for securing equipment
outdours, thus they need to be galvanised, stainless or similar.

I can't find much with Google, there are *lots* of people selling
the one that screwfix sell:-
http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/pro.jsp?id=15443
but that's not really robust enough (nor weatherproof).

There's the opposite extreme at:-
http://www.flints.co.uk/acatalog/Catch.html
but they can take up to 3400kg, a bit excessive. Actually the 900kg
one is not too way out but something a little smaller is really what
I'm after.


Can anyone suggest where I can find this sort of thing?

They do have rather a lot don't they, thanks, I'll browse them at my
leisure and then be horrified at the price I expect.
