304 Marine-Grade Stainless Steel Rotating Shackle (Double-Rotation Jaw) A robust rotating shackle made from 304 marine stainless steel that prevents anchor-line fouling and delivers secure connections in oceans, lakes, and rivers. Designed for daily maintenance and reliable operation on a wide range of vessels. Key benefits Prevents anchor-line entanglement: the rotating mechanism reduces twists and tangles in anchor and mooring lines, saving time and lowering wear. Corrosion-resistant construction: 304 stainless steel resists rust and performs reliably in saltwater and freshwater environments. Improved flexibility and movement: the double-rotation jaw provides smoother articulation under load and reduces stress on rigging components. Versatile compatibility: suitable for various types of ships and boats, making it a practical, everyday item for marine upkeep. Main features Material: 304 marine stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance. Design: double-rotation jaw for enhanced flexibility and reduced line fouling. Function: rotating shackle intended to connect anchor rode, mooring lines, or rigging while allowing rotation and preventing twists. Operational environments: made for use in oceans, lakes, and rivers; suitable for both recreational and professional marine use. Typical applications Anchoring on a cruising sailboat: mounts between anchor rode and chain to reduce twisting when anchoring in changing currents or wind. Marina and dock mooring: connects mooring lines to cleats or buoys while allowing rotation caused by tidal or wake action. Day boating and fishing: use on small powerboats to keep anchor and tow lines from tangling during repeated deployments. Who should use it Professional sailors and crews who need dependable, low-maintenance hardware. Boat owners and marina operators looking for reliable connectors that reduce rigging wear. Marine enthusiasts who prioritize durable, corrosion-resistant equipment. Installation and care Install as part of anchor or mooring rigging with properly sized fittings and inspection of load-bearing components. Rinse with fresh water after extended saltwater exposure and inspect regularly for wear or deformation. Do not exceed the rated working load of the rigging system; use appropriate safety checks per vessel guidelines. A practical, corrosion-resistant rotating shackle built for reliable performance in marine environments and compatible with a wide range of vessels and anchoring setups.
