Product Description

Stainless steel swivel snap shackle, made from 316-grade stainless steel.  Snap shackles are an ingenious invention, performing the function of a connecting shackle, combining of strength and ease of use. 

When snapped shut, snap shackles have a reliable holding action.  However, when needed, snap shackles are very easy to open, by simply pulling the opening pin.

The 'traditional' use of our stainless steel swivel snap shackles is for fore-sail halyards and sheets.  The ease of connection and disconnection is the main reason to use a snap-shackle.  Consider using a snap-shackle in any place where you'd rather get the job done quickly - especially when up on the fore deck in a rough sea.

Additionally these snap-shackles have a swivel end, which is great for fore-sail sheets which can otherwise have a tendency to get twisted over time.

In summary, snap shackles have many 'standard' uses in your running rigging, and the swivel version has the added benefit of preventing twisted ropes and lines.  Beyond the 'standard' uses, consider using a snap shackle any place where you need to act quickly.  Alternatively, if you have a need of a fixed snap shackle, we have those as well.

We've been buying these from Boat Fittings for years and they are much better quality than others we have tried.
