Digank D Ring Shackle, 1/2" Clevis Shackle with 9/16 Inch

Digank D Ring Shackle 1/2" with a 9/16" screw pin is a heavy-duty recovery shackle rated for up to 4,000 pounds designed for secure towing, winch connections, and off-road recovery.

Engineered for vehicle recovery, towing and rigging tasks, this Digank D ring shackle combines a 1/2" bow with a matched 9/16" screw pin to create a snug, gap-minimizing connection that resists accidental disengagement. The shackle is plated and powder-coated to improve corrosion resistance and durability, and it’s sized to pair with common tow straps, rescue straps, tree protectors and rescue blocks used on ATVs, UTVs, trucks and SUVs.

How does this shackle reduce the risk of pin slippage during recovery?

The Digank design pairs the 1/2" D-ring body with a precisely fitted 9/16" screw pin so the pin seats tightly and minimizes play. Less movement means fewer impacts and lower chances the pin will rotate loose during dynamic loads.

• Matched 1/2" body and 9/16" screw pin for a tight fit
• Reduced gaps lower pin movement under load
• Screw-pin fastening allows firm hand-tightening and quick visual checks

What capacity and applications can I expect from this shackle?

This shackle is articulated and rated to handle recovery and towing tasks up to 4,000 pounds, suitable for light-to-medium recovery jobs. It’s ideal for vehicle recovery straps, winch lines, trailer hitching, and rigging anchor points on recreational and utility vehicles.

• Working capacity up to 4,000 lb for common recovery needs
• Compatible with tow straps, winch lines, tree protectors and rescue blocks
• Suited for ATVs, UTVs, trucks, trailers and SUVs

How durable is the finish, and how does it stand up to outdoor use?

The shackle receives a plated base finish followed by a powder-coat layer to extend service life, slow corrosion and protect the metal during repeated use. This treatment gives better wear resistance than raw steel and helps preserve function in wet or dirty conditions.

• Plated plus powder-coated surface for improved corrosion resistance
• Finish reduces pitting and erosion from road and trail use
• Easy to inspect for wear and recoat if needed for long-term life

How do I use this shackle safely with my recovery gear?

Always match the shackle’s working load limit with or above the rated load of straps and winches you use, and inspect pin threads before every use. Install the screw pin fully and hand-tighten; avoid side loading the shackle body and replace if bent or corroded.

• Check that strap and winch ratings meet or exceed 4,000 lb when applicable
• Hand-thread and secure the screw pin completely before loading
• Do not side-load; inspect for bends, thread damage, or heavy corrosion
