Amarine Made 2-Pack Swivel Eye Snap Shackle for Sailboat Spinnaker Halyard

The Amarine Made 2-Pack Swivel Eye Snap Shackle Quick Release Bail Rigging Sailing Boat Marine 304 Stainless Steel for Sailboat Spinnaker Halyard is a versatile and durable product designed for various marine applications. Crafted from 304 stainless steel, these snap shackles are available in three different lengths: 2-3/4", 3-2/5", and 4-9/10".

The key benefit of a snap shackle is its ability to release the bail under hundreds or even thousands of pounds of force. This makes them ideal for use on spinnaker halyards, where the quick release pin is essential to prevent accidental release. To ensure the pin is not accidentally pulled, it is recommended to wrap the pin down with rigging tape.

For applications that do not require frequent removal of the shackle, the eye swivel snap shackle is the perfect choice. The swivel bail allows for connection with dynamically moving parts, ensuring a secure and flexible connection. On the other hand, if the shackle does require frequent removal while maintaining a secure connection, the jaw snap shackles are the recommended option.

It is important to note that the maximum working load limit of these snap shackles varies depending on the length of the shackle. The larger the shackle, the more force it can handle. However, the safe working load also depends on the application and even the orientation of the shackle under load.

These snap shackles are designed to be quickly and easily opened, which is ideal for use on spinnaker halyards. However, if using these shackles for any other purpose, it is crucial to carefully consider the application and ensure that the shackles meet the safety requirements.

The 304 stainless steel construction of these snap shackles helps to drastically reduce wear and corrosion, making them a durable and long-lasting choice for marine environments. The eye bail is perfect for when a line does not require frequent removal of the shackle, while the quick release pin allows the snap bail to be released even under tension.

In summary, the Amarine Made 2-Pack Swivel Eye Snap Shackle Quick Release Bail Rigging Sailing Boat Marine 304 Stainless Steel for Sailboat Spinnaker Halyard is a versatile and reliable product that can be used in a variety of marine applications, thanks to its durable construction, quick-release capabilities, and swivel bail design.
