Galvanized screw-pin shackles connect rope terminations to hardware like thimbles, anchors, rings, or other fittings. Shackles listed here are typical galvanized anchor-type shackles with industry-standard working load limits for common marine and rigging applications.

Galvanized Marine Shackles — Sizes & Working Load Limits  

⚓️ Pro Tip: Always verify exact WLL on manufacturer markings/datasheets for safe rigging use.

Hardware Features:

✔ Marine-Grade Protection: Hot-dip galvanized coating resists rust and corrosion — perfect for saltwater. Forged carbon steel with alloy pins. Heat treated.

✔ Versatile Hardware: Shackles provide secure connection points for dock, mooring, and various rigging assemblies.

✔ Multiple Sizes: Choose from a broad range to fit your rope diameters and load needs.

Sizing & Compatibility Tips — Get It Right Every Time

Choosing the correct size hardware is critical for performance, safety, and longevity of rope terminations — especially in marine and load-bearing applications.

✔ Match thimbles to rope diameter for best protection and fit. The thimble groove must closely match the actual diameter of your rope — not too small and not too loose.

✔ Always measure the rope diameter before selecting a thimble size.

✔ Safety First: Thimbles themselves aren’t load-rated but help maintain rope strength and prevent wear that could lead to failure.

Whether you’re rigging cleats, launching anchors, or setting up dock lines, using the correct thimble size matched to your rope diameter ensures maximum strength and reliability.
