Rightwards Harpoon With Barb Up To Bar Symbol Meaning
⥓ (U+2953, “RIGHTWARDS HARPOON WITH BARB UP TO BAR”) is a directional arrow form. Visually, it points to the right and includes a harpoon-style barb, which can suggest a “hooking,” “catching,” or “connecting” action in diagrams or emphasized flow text. The “up to bar” aspect indicates a bar-like endpoint or target element, making the symbol suitable for annotations that describe an interaction with a specific stopping point. In practice, it’s most commonly used in technical writing, UI mockups, and diagram labels where you want a distinct arrow style beyond standard arrows (like → or ➔).
Common uses
- •Labeling a specific connection or target in technical diagrams and schematics
- •Designing UI flow indicators where a rightward action “hooks” onto a bar/stop point
- •Annotating document workflows with a distinctive arrow style
- •Creating distinctive headings or callouts that imply capture/attachment to a target
