Description
Wichard Speedlink Trigger Snap Shackles:
Speed-link is the new trigger snap shackle dedicated to spinnaker operations on racing boats and offering an excellent weight / performance ratio.
- Ultra lightweight: developed by using finite element analysis software. Speed-link has an optimised design thanks to its shape, cut-outs and ribs.
- The design gives it one of the best strength/weight ratios on the market.
- Easy opening: opening under load, whether manually or using release fid, is easy and effortless thanks to the generous passage diameter and its optimised slopes.
- No accidental opening: the special shape of the latch reduces inertia and avoids unintentional opening, especially under impact.
- Sturdy: Speed-link is forged in HR stainless steel and can bear outstanding working and breaking loads for a minimum weight.
- Modern design: its ultra-technical lines avoid excessive rope wear and prevent adjacent lines from jamming.
Applications:
- Spinnaker operations: sheets, halyards, peeling.
