Tylaska has taken the venerable, tested, and optimized T12 Trigger Snap Shackle design and reformatted it into an ultra-lightweight polycarbonate model called the LT500 Light Air Snap Shackle. The polycarbonate LT500 is identical in dimension to the Tylaska T12 snap shackle at just a fraction of the weight. As the name suggests, this shackle was designed to be used on your spinnaker sheets on very light wind days, when getting every ounce out of your light air setup helps keep your spinnaker full and ghosting you along. Also perfect for anywhere you need a light weight, non-marking, quick release connection such as fenders, boom tents, sail lockers, or even dog leashes.
