Bumping this up as I'm curious if anybody else on here has had an issue with the chain binding up using these swivels?

I bought 5 from TXDogs about 2 years ago and even though the 5 are still in use, I have had an issue with them all getting stuck somehow and kinking up the chain. I let TXDogs know the issue and I'm not sure if he ever gapped it different to try to fix the issue or not. When it's kinked up I will stretch the chain out to try to let the swivel spin free but it won't spin at all. I have to take my hand and turn the swivel myself until it's no longer kinked. And then I spray WD-40 on it and it's good for a while but it never fails, it will kink up again eventually. The latest time was just yesterday. I think I'm going to switch them out before the cold months hit as I can't have a dog that can't get in their house to warm up.

Just curious if this has happened to anybody else? Or maybe I just got a bad batch of 5.
