Gen3 Marine 316 Stainless Steel Anchor Shackle - Available in 1/4" to 3/8"

The Gen3 Marine Anchor Shackle is a 316 stainless steel screw-pin shackle built to connect anchors, chain, and rode without succumbing to the corrosion that ruins lesser hardware. Where 304 stainless and zinc-plated shackles pit and rust after repeated saltwater dunking, 316 stainless holds its strength and finish season after season. The round-bodied bow and hand-threaded screw pin let you assemble the connection dockside with no tools required, then back it off just as easily when it's time to swap ground tackle or inspect the chain. Sized from 1/4 inch up to 3/8 inch, this line covers everything from small craft and kayak anchor rodes to mid-size boat anchor and chain setups.

Sizes & Options

Match the shackle to the diameter of the chain link or anchor eye it needs to pass through, not just the boat's overall length. The 1/4 inch size suits small anchors, kayaks, and light-duty rode connections. The 5/16 inch size is a common middle ground for mid-size anchor and chain setups. The 3/8 inch size steps up for larger anchors and heavier chain where extra pin diameter and working load are needed. When in doubt, size up slightly rather than down, since an undersized shackle pin is the weak point in an otherwise strong ground tackle system.
