Wichard 14mm 316L Non-Self-Locking D Shackle

The Wichard Not Self-Locking D Shackle 14mm for Marine Rigging is a forged shackle for connecting sailboat rigging and deck fittings. Wichard specifies 316L stainless steel construction for this fitting. The connection uses a straight-sided D profile.

Its D shape suits connections that load primarily through the straight body and pin. Pin and opening dimensions should match the hardware connected to it. The shackle should be loaded in the intended alignment rather than across an unsupported side angle. The shackle can be used with other rigging hardware only where the connection and load arrangement are compatible.

The marine working load listed for this size is 5,290 lb. The published breaking load is 17,630 lb. Select the diameter and opening dimensions for the specific block, line, or deck fitting. Wichard distinguishes the industrial working load limit from the marine working load rating. Browse more sailing hardware for related deck and rigging equipment.
