Our Shackle Line: Durable and Corrosion-Resistant

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

Our line of shackles is made from type 316 stainless steel, widely considered the best-in-class material. 316 stainless steel is highly corrosion-resistant and durable, even in the harshest environments. It is often referred to as "Surgical Steel" due to its widespread use in food handling and medical industries.

Diverse Shackle Designs for Various Needs

Bow Shackles: The curvature of the bow allows for loads along various angles without developing a bend, making them ideal for connecting chains to anchors.

Wide D Shackles: The wider body maximizes the mounting area, making them suitable for use on mooring buoys.

Hex Pin Shackles: The hex pin creates a non-snag surface, making them great for connecting to anchors.

Anti-Off Shackles: The safety pin prevents the shackle from unlocking, making them ideal for permanent connections.

US Type D Shackles: The larger US-style pin allows for higher load limits, making them suitable for in-line loads where a normal pin might bend.

US Type Bow Shackles: The larger US-style pin provides higher load limits, making them perfect for situations where a normal pinned bow shackle might bend.

Long D Shackles: The longer body allows for a greater weight-to-strength ratio.

Twist Shackles: These are great for when you need to rotate gear for connection, without using two connectors.

Key Pin Shackles: The key pin allows for quick release, making them suitable for situations where the shackle must be undone frequently.

D Shackles: The shape and curvature make them ideal for in-line loads, but they should not be side-loaded as this can cause bending.
