Forged
The Harken stainless steel shackles used on Harken® blocks
are available separately. We have increased the range in
both configurations and sizes.
Stamped Shackles
The 072, 138, and 246 shackles are used on most of the
Small Boat blocks. They are also useful for a wide range
of other applications.
Snap Shackles
The 111, 112, and 1584 snap shackles fit a wide variety
of blocks and make them removable. Many use a snap
shackle on the lower vang block so that it can be moved
from the mastbase to the toerail to use it as a preventer.
U-Adaptor
The 093 U-adaptor allows blocks with 3/8 in (10 mm)
posts to be attached to swivel bases or to other blocks
with 3/8 in (10 mm) posts.
The 1598 U-adaptor allows blocks with 9/16 in (14 mm)
posts to be attached to swivel bases or to other blocks
with 9/16 in (14 mm) posts.
The 463 U-Adaptor adapts 75 mm Carbo singles
to swivel bases.
The breaking strengths on the Harken Stainless Steel Shackles are derived
from tests that support 80% of the length of the screw pin that is unsupported,
which is similar to the area of a post in a block. Safe working loads
are no more than half the minimum breaking strength.
