These are premium Stainless Steel Flat Long D-Shackles featuring Certified Breaking (Bl) Loads for guaranteed performance and your peace of mind.

Unmatched Strength and Safety

When it comes to anchoring and mooring, there is no room for compromise. The BLUEWAVE Flat Long Shackle provides exceptional strength, boasting a certified breaking load of 3000 kg. This impressive capacity ensures that your anchor, chain, and mooring lines remain securely connected, even when subjected to heavy loads from wind, waves, and currents. Each shackle is meticulously tested to meet rigorous standards, giving you the confidence that your boat is safe and secure whether you are anchored in a secluded cove or docked at a busy marina.

Superior Durability for the Marine Environment

Crafted from high-grade, polished stainless steel, this shackle offers outstanding resistance to corrosion and rust. It is built to endure constant exposure to harsh marine elements, including saltwater spray, intense UV radiation, and fluctuating temperatures. The superior material and high-polish finish not only provide a clean, professional look but also prevent premature wear and degradation, ensuring a long service life and reducing the need for frequent replacements. This is a true "fit and forget" component for your boat´s most vital systems.

Innovative and Practical Design

The "Flat Long" D-shape is a key feature that sets these shackles apart. The elongated body provides extra internal space, making it ideal for connecting multiple lines, accommodating anchor chains with larger links, or attaching to thick webbing and rope thimbles without causing bunching or excessive friction. Furthermore, the innovative flat head pin design creates a lower, snag-free profile. This significantly reduces the risk of the shackle catching on sails, sheets, dock lines, or clothing, enhancing safety and convenience during operation. The threaded pin ensures a secure closure that is easy to open and close with a suitable tool, yet remains firmly in place under load.

This versatile shackle is a fundamental component for a wide range of applications within the Boats and equipment category, specifically for Anchoring and mooring. It is perfect for:

* Connecting an anchor to the anchor chain.
* Joining sections of chain or connecting the chain to a swivel.
* Securing mooring lines to a buoy or dock ring.
* Various rigging applications where a strong, reliable, and elongated connection point is required.
