Yes. The Dutch aluminum suspension biner fits very nicely on the Ti cinch buckle.
I'm using that setup to eliminate the amsteel loop which shortens the overall length on my bridge hammocks.

On my bridge hammock, I made the loops on the amsteel dogbones large enough that I could just take the two loops together and larks head them onto the cinch buckle. It works great. But when my straps got wet (like they did over the last 5 days in the Smokies) I pulled the strap out of the cinch buckle and packed them away separately to keep my hammock dry(er). Using the biner would make that process easier, just a little bit heavier.
Peace Dutch

Like purple? It's New England Ropes 3mm HTS 90 that I got on sale at West Marine early this year. It's a little stiffer than amsteel blue and massive overkill for this use.

Time to start making my Christmas wish list. This is exactly what I've been looking for to replace the rings in my straps & rings suspension. Really didn't want to have my straps (more or less) permanently attached to my hammock. Problem solved. May have to get some of the purple rope too. So what if its overkill, would look much better with my purple tablecloth hammock than the blue-green Amsteel that's on it now.
