The Tylaska T12 Standard Bail Snap Shackle is built for mid-size boats that need high strength without the weight. Machined from aerospace-grade 17-4PH stainless steel, it has a 12,000 lb breaking strength and weighs just 5.9 oz, making it ideal for halyards and sheets on 30–45 ft sailboats.

The standard bail leaves room to attach a line while keeping weight and length to a minimum. Tylaska's patented trigger release opens under high load with one hand, so sails can be released quickly and safely.
