Wichard 10mm 316L Self-Locking Long D Shackle

The Wichard Self-Locking Long D Shackle 10mm is a forged shackle for connecting sailboat rigging and deck fittings. Wichard specifies 316L stainless steel construction for this fitting. The connection uses an extended straight-sided D profile. The design uses a self-locking pin to secure the fitting.

The extra length can provide clearance between two connected fittings. The self-locking pin seats in a body indentation to help resist loosening. The shackle should be loaded in the intended alignment rather than across an unsupported side angle.

The marine working load listed for this size is 3,350 lb. The published breaking load is 9,470 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.
