Galvanised D Shackle

Description

Ensure robust and reliable connections in demanding environments with Marvisons' high-quality Galvanised D Shackle. Also known as a Chain Shackle due to its narrower, "D" shaped body, this essential piece of rigging hardware is specifically designed for inline (straight-line) pulls and is widely used across marine, agricultural, construction, and general utility applications where a strong, corrosion-resistant link is required.

Our Galvanised D Shackles are typically forged from high-strength carbon steel, renowned for its durability and reliability. The key feature of this shackle is its hot-dip galvanised finish. This process applies a thick, protective layer of zinc over the steel, providing exceptional resistance against rust, corrosion, and the damaging effects of harsh weather, saltwater, and abrasive conditions. Available with various pin types (commonly screw pin for quick connections or bolt & nut with cotter pin for more permanent installations), each shackle is rigorously tested and clearly marked with its Working Load Limit (WLL). Designed to meet or exceed stringent industry standards such as ASME B30.26 and Federal Specification RR-C-271, Marvisons' Galvanised D Shackles guarantee safety, compliance, and long-lasting performance in the toughest outdoor and marine settings.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Hot-Dip Galvanised Finish: Provides superior corrosion resistance, protecting against rust, saltwater, and harsh elements, ideal for outdoor and marine use.
• D Type (Chain Shackle) Design: Optimized for inline (straight-line) pulling applications, ensuring proper load alignment.
• Durable Carbon Steel: Forged from high-strength carbon steel for robust performance and reliability.
• Reliable Working Load Limit (WLL): Clearly marked and tested to ensure safe and compliant use within specified capacities.
• Versatile Connecting Link: Ideal for connecting ropes, cables, chains, and various rigging components.
• Meets Industry Standards: Manufactured to comply with strict safety regulations for rigging hardware (e.g., ASME B30.26, RR-C-271).
• Easy to Use: Available with user-friendly screw pins for quick connections or secure bolt & nut pins for permanent setups.

Important Note: Always select the correct shackle size and type for your application. Ensure the pin is fully engaged and secured. Avoid side-loading unless the shackle is specifically rated and designed for it (D shackles are primarily for inline pulls).

Ideal for:

• Marine and Boating Applications (dock lines, anchor chains)
• Outdoor Rigging and Tie-Downs
• Agriculture and Farming Equipment
• Construction Site Connections
• Towing and Recovery Operations
• General Utility and Material Handling
• Any environment requiring strong, corrosion-resistant connections.

Choose Marvisons' Galvanised D Shackle for a dependable, safe, and corrosion-resistant solution that ensures the integrity and security of your connections in challenging conditions.
