Tylaska T16 Martin Breaker – Standard Bail Snap Shackle
The Tylaska T16 Martin Breaker is the largest and most powerful model in the Martin Breaker range, designed for yachts in the 40–50 ft class and beyond. Engineered from heat-treated 17-4 PH stainless steel and precision-machined to aerospace tolerances, the T16 provides unmatched strength, safety, and reliability for demanding high-load applications.
Fitted with a Dyneema® remote-release cord, the T16 allows a fully loaded tack shackle to be released instantly and safely from the cockpit. This system eliminates the need for a bow crew to manually spike the shackle, making it especially valuable during spinnaker drops in heavy weather or offshore conditions. For professional race crews and short-handed sailors alike, it delivers confidence and control during high-stakes manoeuvres.
With an outstanding breaking load of 16,000 lb (7,260 kg), the T16 is built to handle the rigging loads of larger performance yachts. The standard swivelling bail provides secure and versatile attachment while reducing line twist, ensuring smooth handling of sheets and tack lines under extreme loads.
