The tactical design makes these shackles particularly valuable for racing and performance sailing applications.
Why Forged Construction?
Forging compresses and aligns the metal's grain structure, creating a stronger, more durable product than cast alternatives. This process eliminates internal voids and structural weaknesses, ensuring consistent performance under load and providing superior resistance to fatigue and failure.
Safety and Maintenance:
Regularly inspect snap shackles for wear, corrosion, or damage to the spring mechanism. Ensure the snap gate closes and locks securely before each use. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure and lubricate the spring mechanism periodically with marine-grade lubricant. Never exceed the working load limit.
