Source for US Made double clevis

Post by Bob Ohler »

I am looking for a US made, forged double clevis... (clevis at each end). Galvanized would be nice but not critical. The one that came yesterday from McMaster Carr, the heads of the pins are labeled "China."

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Bob,

I would call the guys at Rigging Only (The Rigging Loft) in Fairhaven MA. I have had them make up shrouds and stays for me three times over the years and they are great. They carry Hayn Rigging products which I believe are manufactured in CT.

Try 1st Chain Supply in MO.
They have galvanized shackles as strong as the chain, without going up a size.

I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means no.
