Wichard Captive Pin Twisted Shackle - Diameter 6mm - 1/4"

The Wichard Captive Pin Twisted Shackle in 6mm (1/4") diameter is an essential fastening solution for serious boaters and anglers who require reliability in marine environments. This versatile shackle is ideal for rigging deck hardware, securing cleats, and assembling rod holders and tackle stations.

Designed to withstand harsh marine conditions, the captive pin design prevents the loss of critical fasteners. The twisted pin configuration enhances holding power by increasing contact area with internal surfaces, minimizing the risk of accidental release under load. Made from corrosion-resistant marine-grade materials, this shackle can handle the pull forces generated by tackle rigging and anchor systems without deformation.

Experienced anglers and boat owners appreciate this shackle for its reliability in livewell systems, outrigger mounts, and deck-mounted rod racks where constant vibration and motion can compromise standard hardware. Its lightweight design and robust construction make it suitable for permanent or semi-permanent installations on various hull materials.
