Sea-Dog 316 Stainless Screw Pin Bow Shackle 5/16in
Sea-Dog 316 Stainless Screw Pin Bow Shackle 5/16in — Product description
The Sea-Dog screw pin bow shackle is a cast 316 stainless steel connector built for anchor rodes, rigging, and general deck work. The rounded bow gives you room for a thimble or a couple of attachments on one pin, and the screw pin threads in by hand so you can connect and disconnect without tools. It's 5/16 inch pin size with an 11/16 inch bow.
If you need a dependable connection point on the boat, this Sea-Dog screw pin bow shackle earns its spot in the ditty bag. It's cast from 316 stainless steel, the grade that holds up to saltwater and spray without rusting out on you. The wide, rounded bow gives you more room than a straight D shackle, so it's a natural fit for anchor rodes, a thimble on the end of a line, or anywhere two or three attachments share one pin.
The 5/16 inch pin and 11/16 inch bow put this one in the light-to-medium duty range. Think dinghy painters, fender lines, flag halyards, and general rigging around the deck. The screw pin threads in and out by hand, so you can make or break a connection on the water without digging for tools. Give it a snug turn with pliers when it matters, and seize the pin with a bit of wire or a zip tie if it's going to live under load for a season.
It ships in a bulk package, handy when you want a few spares in the locker.

Frequently asked questions
What is the pin and bow size on this Sea-Dog shackle?
The pin is 5/16 inch and the bow measures 11/16 inch. That puts it in the light-to-medium duty range for deck rigging, fender lines, and anchor rode connections.
What material is it made from?
It's cast 316 stainless steel. That's the marine grade that stands up to saltwater and spray better than 304, so it's a good pick for anything mounted on deck or near the water.
Why choose a screw pin over a fixed shackle?
The screw pin threads in and out by hand, so you can connect or disconnect without tools. For loads that stay on a while, give the pin a snug turn with pliers and seize it with wire or a zip tie so it can't back out.
What can I use this bow shackle for?
It's a general-purpose connector. Anchor rodes, dinghy painters, fender lines, flag halyards, and anywhere you need to join a line or chain to a fitting. The rounded bow leaves room for a thimble or a couple of attachments on one pin.
