Here you can buy a detailed replica of a Viking distributor that was made after a model from Gotland that dates to the 11th century.
The Viking distributor set consists of three parts made of high-quality bronze casting.
The single distributor fitting has the dimensions: 5.5 x 1.5 cm. The ring has a diameter of 2 cm.
This Viking distributor set is suitable for straps with a thickness of 3 - 4 mm and a width of 2 - 3 cm. 6 double-headed rivets for fastening are included.
Distributors were quite common in the Viking Age and were used in Birka and on Gotland as well as in Russia and other Viking settlement areas.
In the Viking Age, strap distributors were used to fasten shorter pieces of strap to longer belts as well as the individual straps of a sword hanger or the suspension for a sax.
