Engineered for demanding marine rigging and heavy-duty load sharing, the Gloma 3/8" Forged Captive Long D Shackle (Model IM205-I) provides maximum clearance and unmatched safety. Forged from premium AISI 316 stainless steel, this shackle is built to withstand brutal salt-water environments while offering immense structural strength and resistance to rust. The standout feature is its smart captive pin design: the pin is engineered to remain locked in the shackle body even when fully unscrewed, completely eliminating the risk of dropping or losing the pin overboard during rigging. Boasting an elongated "Long D" profile, it provides the extra depth needed to easily connect multiple lines, blocks, or thick halyards without binding, while maintaining a fully open entry point for fast, hassle-free connections.
