Anchoring
When an anchor chain suddenly goes taut it can sound like a gun going off (or a cleat tearing out!). Take the stress off your anchor, windlass, and boat by rigging a SHOCKLES® on your anchor chain. Our custom anodized heavy-gauge carabiners will fit most chains (see guidelines below) and snap on and off your chain easily. If they don't fit your chain size you can simply clip on any of a dozen different shackles or stainless clips instead. We recommend an 18" SHOCKLES.
The SHOCKLES carabiner fits the following anchor chains:
• 5/16" high-test anchor chain
• 3/8" high-test anchor chain
• 1/4" proof coil anchor chain
• 5/16" proof coil anchor chain
• 3/8" proof-coil anchor chain
With additional accessories, the SHOCKLES can also be used on the following anchor chains:
• 1/4" BBB anchor chain
• 5/16" BBB anchor chain
• 3/8"BBB anchor chain
• 1/4" high-test anchor chain
