Shackles

These galvanized shackles can be used to attach chain and cables or ropes with thimbles.  The threaded pin screws into the shackle loop for a secure and durable attachement of two ends.  They are often used to connect ballast chains on silt curtains or turbidity curtains.  Shackles are also commonly used in anchoring systems for boom or silt curtains, attaching anchors, lines, leaders and buoys, 

Texas Boom Company stocks shackles in three sizes:  3/16 in, 5/16 in, and 3/8 in.  Larger sizes are available via custom orders.  

Hot dipped galvanizing (HDG) readies these shackles for long term exposure to salt water.
