US Stainless: Reliable Stainless Steel Hardware for Marine and Outdoor Use

Our Shackle Line: Strength and Durability in Corrosive Environments

Metal shackles are the most commonly used connectors for chains or ropes, serving various purposes such as towing, anchor lines, and dock lines. Shackles are classified by their shape, material, size, and working load limit, with different types suited for different applications.

Our line of shackles is made from type 316 stainless steel, widely considered the best in class for corrosion resistance and durability, even in the harshest conditions. This "surgical steel" grade is the go-to choice for food handling and medical applications, making it ideal for marine use, diving, and chemically harsh environments.

Bow Shackles: Versatile Load Handling The curvature of the bow on our bow shackles allows for loads along various angles without developing a bend, making them often used to connect chain to anchors.

Wide D Shackles: Optimal Mounting Area The wider body of our Wide D shackles maximizes the mounting area, making them ideal for use on mooring buoys.

Hex Pin Shackles: Non-Snag Design Our hex pin shackles feature a non-snag surface, making them great for connecting to anchors.

Anti-Off Shackles: Secure Permanent Connections The safety pin on our Anti-Off shackles prevents unlocking, making them ideal for permanent connections in situations where a threaded pin might come undone.

US Type D and Bow Shackles: Increased Load Limits The larger US type pins on our D and bow shackles allow for higher load limits, making them perfect for in-line loads and situations where a normal pin might bend.

Long D Shackles: Enhanced Strength-to-Weight Ratio The longer body of our Long D shackles provides a greater weight-to-strength ratio.

Twist Shackles: Rotational Flexibility Our Twist shackles are great for when you need to rotate gear for connection, without using two connectors.

Key Pin Shackles: Quick and Easy Release Key pin shackles on our products allow for quick, single-handed release, making them ideal for situations where the shackle must be undone frequently.

D Shackles: Ideal for Inline Loads The shape and curvature of our D shackles make them well-suited for inline loads, though they should not be side-loaded, as this can cause bending.

Precision Manufacturing and Reliability All our stainless steel 316 shackles are precision-manufactured for smooth opening and closing, and forged for greater strength and reliability, ensuring a long service life in corrosive marine and outdoor environments.
