Heavy-duty carbon steel construction: The D-ring shackle is made from robust carbon steel for reliable strength and long service life. A threaded pin design prevents accidental release during use, ensuring safe connections under load. Corrosion-resistant finish: Zinc-plated and powder-coated for protection against rust, erosion, and harsh environments. The durable coating prolongs life and keeps the shackle functioning in wet or salty conditions. High load capacity: Rated for 8,800 pounds, suitable for demanding tasks such as towing, winching and vehicle recovery. Built to handle heavy loads while giving you confidence in performance. Noise and wear reduction: The shackle serves as an extra bumper/protection device and helps reduce annoying squeaks when mounted to a vehicle. Included washers prevent direct metal-on-metal friction between the D-ring and anchor points, adding an extra layer of protection and reducing wear. Versatile compatibility: Works with winches, tow straps, tie-downs and anchor points. Ideal for use with boats, off-road vehicles, trailers and other towing or securing applications. Practical use scenarios Off-road recovery: Attach the shackle to a vehicle recovery point and a winch line to safely extract a stuck ATV, Jeep or UTV. Boat transport and mooring: Use with tie-down straps or mooring lines to secure a boat during trailering or at the dock, with corrosion-resistant finish for marine conditions. Towing and hauling: Connect tow straps or rigging hardware for emergency towing, trailer recovery or rigging heavy loads.
