A tire snow chain repair link is what I always heard referred to as a "monkey 
link".  The repair link is twisted partially open so you can slip two ends of 
a broken chain in it and close it up to make the repair.  Being partially 
open allows you to easily slip a small rope in it when it is welded on the end of 
the rod.  Keeps you from having to thread the rope thru a bunch of holes.  I 
can take a picture of one if you are interested.
