Wichard HR Bow Shackle - 20mm Diameter - 25/32"

The Wichard HR Bow Shackle – 20mm Diameter – 25/32" is a premium stainless steel fastening solution designed for serious boaters and anglers who demand reliability in both saltwater and freshwater environments. This French-engineered marine-grade shackle serves as a critical connection point between your anchor, chain, or mooring systems and deck hardware, where failure is not an option.

Wichard's HR (High Resistance) bow shackle features robust construction that withstands the dynamic loads imposed by anchor deployment, recovery, and constant wave action. The bow configuration distributes lateral and longitudinal stress evenly, preventing twisting and deformation common in inferior designs. Cast from marine-grade stainless steel with a smooth, polished finish, the shackle resists corrosion from salt spray, fuel, and sunlight—critical factors for boaters operating in coastal or harsh environments.

This shackle is ideal for anglers and cruising boaters who prioritize safety and longevity over budget alternatives. The 25/32" size is compatible with various standard chain sizes and deck fittings found on most mid-sized and larger recreational and commercial vessels. Installation is straightforward—simply thread the pin through the appropriate hardware for secure attachment.
