Review on ๐Ÿ”— Marine Grade Stainless Steel Bow Shackles - 1/8" for Durability and Versatility by Phillip Johnson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Tolerances are not a priority

I bought these to have some small mounts for a scale model boat and the 1/8" mount is perfect for what I need. When I received them I thought they looked a bit large so I measured the pin and it is about 200% larger than the nominal diameter. I'm not saying I was sent the wrong size (because the reviews say it's not allowed for some reason). , but the factory may have very large tolerances for what may be considered 1/8 inch. The finish is good and the carving is well done.

Pros
  • boating and sailing
Cons
  • not reliable
