316 Stainless Standard Dee Shackle - Size D: 16 mm
Use this 316 stainless steel dee shackle for a compact connection with a solid round screw pin. The conventional dee body and removable screw-pin arrangement make it a useful form to compare when replacing existing stainless connecting hardware.
The selected model combines a 16 mm D dimension with a 52 mm L measurement and a 32 mm B dimension. These measurements identify this size within the range.
Match the pin, body and adjoining hardware
A shackle provides a removable connection, making its pin and body shape equally important when selecting a replacement. The pin must fit the receiving opening, while the body needs room for the other part of the assembly. Comparing those interfaces together helps avoid choosing a fitting that has the right nominal size but the wrong clearance.
Consider access for opening and closing the pin in the final position. This matters when the fitting sits near another component or inside a confined mounting area. During routine checks, inspect the pin engagement, body and contact points together. Use the stated rating information for this particular version; a different body style or metal size can carry different guidance.
Selection details
The body dimensions are especially useful where clearance is restricted. Compare size D with dimensions L and B, and check that the pin and body suit both adjoining components. Select the suggested working load appropriate to the assembled connection.
The suggested working load is 2400 kg. It is approximately 25% of ultimate breaking load; breaking load must not be used as an operating load.
The dee-shaped body provides a relatively narrow connection profile. This is useful to consider where neighbouring hardware limits the available space. Compare the clearance within the body and around the pin with the mating parts before ordering, then keep the exact size reference with the assembly’s maintenance records for later replacement.
