Wichard 1202W Self-Locking D Shackle Grade Stainless Steel Shackles - 5mm 3/16 316L

The Wichard 1202W is a self-locking D shackle forged from Grade 316L stainless steel, designed for demanding marine and rigging applications where accidental pin release is not an option. The 5mm (3/16") diameter construction delivers reliable strength in a compact form factor.

Key Features:

• Self-Locking Pin Design: The pin locks securely into one of the machined indentations on the shackle body, virtually eliminating the risk of loosening under load or vibration
• Grade 316L Stainless Steel: Forged from marine-grade 316L stainless steel for outstanding corrosion resistance in saltwater environments
• 5mm / 3/16" Pin Diameter: Compact sizing suitable for light-to-medium rigging, sail hardware, and deck fittings
• D-Shackle Profile: Classic D-shape provides a strong, stable connection point that resists side-loading better than bow shackles
• No Tools Required: The self-locking mechanism allows quick, tool-free operation while maintaining a secure hold
