Wichard 2375W HR Snap Shackle Large Bail Swivel Eye 105mm (4-1/8")

The Wichard 2375W is a High Resistance (HR) forged snap shackle featuring a large bail swivel eye, measuring 105mm (4-1/8") in length. Designed and manufactured in France, this snap shackle is forged from Grade 17.4 PH stainless steel — a premium marine-grade alloy chosen for its exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and ability to handle high-load sailing applications.

The large bail eye design allows multiple lines or ropes to be attached simultaneously, making it ideal for spinnaker halyards, sheets, and other performance sailing rigging. The swivel eye provides free rotation of the shackle body, eliminating twist and ensuring better sail orientation and line management under load.
