No-o-o-!
Hello again,
Do not pull this trigger. If you have already pulled this trigger, un-pull it. Adding a toggle downhill from the T will not reduce load on the bend in the T, and that is where the problem is. Selden and others make T-adaptors for eyes, forks, and HM rigging, but the T's remain.
Alexander Roberts might be a company you want to avoid in general; too many failures of their gear in my experience.
So, if you stay with T's, get the best ones you can, and plan on replacing them at a prudent interval, as determined by route, load cycles, and climate. Or be, you know, rational, and put in actual tangs.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
