steel its high resistance. Stainless shackles have high corrosion resistance. And so are popular
throughout the marine industry and aviation industries as well as oil and gas. Stainless is strong, resilient
and versatile. Because of this that it has become an important piece of equipment in many industries.
Stainless steel shackles also boast a more pleasing appearance than the galvanized steel version. Making them
