Description

Gloma Nautica Snap Shackles (Without Ring) – Quick‑Release AISI 316 Stainless Steel

Gloma Nautica’s Snap Shackles (Without Ring) are designed for sailors and rigging professionals who demand quick, reliable, and secure connections. These snap shackles are crafted entirely from AISI 316 stainless steel, guaranteeing exceptional resistance to saltwater corrosion and long-term durability in marine environments

The Gloma Nautica Snap Shackles Without Ring are precision-engineered marine hardware designed for fast, reliable connections where space, speed, and security are essential. Made from high-quality AISI 316 stainless steel, these shackles provide exceptional resistance to corrosion, wear, and harsh marine environments. With a clean, low-profile design that eliminates the traditional pull ring, they are ideal for tight rigging areas and applications where snagging must be avoided.

These snap shackles use a spring-loaded plunger pin mechanism, allowing quick, one-handed release—even when under load. The absence of a release ring not only reduces bulk but also enhances safety and aesthetics in compact deck layouts or racing setups. Despite the minimalistic form, these shackles maintain the strength and durability expected of Gloma Nautica products, with forged construction that ensures optimal grain alignment for fatigue resistance and long service life.

Because they are forged from marine-grade AISI 316 stainless steel, they offer outstanding protection against rust, saltwater exposure, and mechanical stress. This makes them especially suitable for use in halyard systems, spinnaker sheets, topping lifts, quick-release control lines, and emergency sail drops. The robust internal spring and secure locking mechanism ensure the shackle stays locked during operation but can be quickly opened when needed, offering peace of mind in both leisure and high-performance sailing.

Each unit is rigorously tested and certified by APPLUS, ensuring dependable working load limits and break strength values. This certification provides confidence in their use aboard any vessel, whether for racing, cruising, or commercial purposes. The compact design, combined with its strong performance and ease of operation, makes these shackles a favorite among sailors and riggers who value both functionality and simplicity.

Gloma Nautica’s dedication to quality and innovation is evident in every detail. These shackles are made entirely in Spain using advanced forging techniques and quality control systems. Their polished finish not only adds a professional touch but also helps reduce surface corrosion and makes them easier to inspect and maintain over time. They are available in a range of sizes to suit different rope diameters and load requirements, offering flexible solutions for marine professionals and DIY riggers alike.

Choosing Gloma Nautica Snap Shackles Without Ring means investing in a piece of hardware that offers speed, safety, and durability without compromise. Whether you are updating your rigging, setting up quick-release points, or looking for hardware that performs flawlessly under pressure, this product delivers high performance in a compact, ringless form factor. With their strong materials, user-friendly design, and certified performance, they are a trusted solution for today’s demanding marine applications.
