Wichard HR Snap Shackle – Swivel, Standard Bail, Length 110 mm
The Wichard HR Swivel Snap Shackle with Standard Bail in the 110 mm size is a high-capacity quick-release fitting designed for demanding running rigging applications on sailing yachts. Manufactured in France from HR (High Resistance) stainless steel, it delivers excellent strength, durability, and corrosion resistance for continuous use in harsh marine environments.
This 110 mm model represents a significant increase in working load within the Standard Bail range while retaining a compact, low-profile form. The Standard Bail provides a clean, streamlined attachment to rope loops, spliced eyes, or shackles, making it ideal where deck layout and space efficiency are important. The integrated swivel prevents torsional loading and ensures smooth alignment under load during trimming and adjustment.
The robust quick-release plunger mechanism allows positive disengagement even when the shackle is under tension, providing a critical safety feature for high-load sail handling systems. With a Safe Working Load of 2400 kg, this snap shackle is well suited to primary sheets, heavily loaded control lines, and trim systems on performance cruisers and racing yachts.
