M12 Twist Shackle, 316 Stainless Steel - TSHA4M12

The Twist Shackle, 316 Stainless Steel is available in 6 sizes (M4 to M12) and is a shackle with a twisted bow, so the pin sits at a right angle to the line of the eye. It is used where a fitting must connect at 90 degrees.

This listing has 6 variants covering sizes M4 to M12. Pack quantities depend on size: packs of 5 to 10.

A4 (316) stainless steel contains molybdenum (about 2 to 3 per cent), which improves its resistance to chlorides. It is the grade normally chosen for coastal, pool, marine and food-processing settings, and it costs more than A2 (304).

Use stainless washers and nuts with stainless fasteners, so the whole joint is made of the same material.
