Questions & Answers

Is this shackle suitable for permanent saltwater mooring?

Yes, the high-quality hot-dipped galvanisation provides excellent resistance to corrosion, making it ideal for marine use. However, regular inspection for wear is always recommended in harsh environments.

How do I know if it is compatible?

Verify that your chain or rope fits within the 32mm internal width. The 16mm pin is designed to match standard 14mm or 16mm chain sizes comfortably.

What is the "D" shape advantage over a Bow shackle?

D-shackles are primarily designed for straight-line (inline) tension loads. Their narrower profile compared to Bow shackles makes them ideal for connecting chain lengths or where space is limited.
