Harken 27mm Pinstop End Control – Shackle

Harken 27mm Pinstop End Control – Shackle

The Harken 27mm Pinstop End Control – Shackle is an essential component for sailors running the Harken 27mm midrange traveler system. Constructed from hardcoat-anodized aluminum, this end control fitting is engineered to precisely limit car movement along the track, ensuring that the traveler car stays within its intended range of travel at all times. The anodizing process enhances the aluminum's surface hardness and corrosion resistance, making it well suited to demanding marine environments.

Integrated bumpers are a key design feature of this pinstop end control. They absorb shock loads that occur when the car reaches the end of its travel, protecting both the car and the track from impact damage. This shock-absorbing capability extends the service life of the entire traveler system and reduces the need for replacement parts over time.

The shackle attachment interface provides a secure and straightforward connection to the track system. With a maximum working load of 900kg (1,984 lb) and a breaking load of 1,800kg (3,968 lb), this fitting is engineered for reliable performance under significant sail loads. The compact dimensions—89mm long, 49mm wide, and 60mm tall—keep weight and bulk to a minimum while maintaining the structural integrity required for midrange racing and cruising applications.
