Wichard Self-Locking Allen Head Pin Bow Shackle - 8mm Diameter - 5/16"

Connect chain and anchor hardware or use this Wichard bow shackle on a halyard where exposed pin heads can catch sails. Its recessed Allen head pin and self-locking arrangement help keep the connection secure without a protruding head.

Key features

• The pin engages an indentation to resist loosening from vibration.
• A pin head contained within the shackle body reduces snagging and helps avoid sail damage on halyards.
• Chain-to-anchor connections are among the stated uses.
• Separate nautical and industrial load ratings let you check the figure relevant to your application.
