All my fault that I dropped one of these over and need to replace it now. I can get my calipers out and get exact measurements for a replacement. Who should I contact to get a piece like this? thanks everybody

What did you lose?

West Marine may have these parts. You can always get them from their catalog outlet. Shackle & Pins normally are sold as a single part. You can also purchase them with a captive pin that will not fall out. I have not seen a clevis pin with a hole that large either.

It looks like a shackle on a swivel pin from a block.

If you lost the swivel pin contact the manufacturer. If it's the shackle oe the shackle pin go to your marine hardware store or West Marine as suggested. Joe S

The shackle is easy

So is the pin. About the plastic sleeve on the pin, I'd contact the manufacturer of whatever the sleeve was a bushing for. Keep it up, Ctskip

Hood roller furling?

They look like what is supplied with the Hood roller furling. Their web site is below but they seem to be off the Internet this morning.

Thanks for all the help...

Got some good leads now. Yea I should've mentioned that the piece is from our roller furling. We got the boat used 7 yrs ago and the unit doesn't have the manufacturers name stamped anywhere on it anywhere, unless I've just completely missed it. I'll take a snap of the whole thing and send it to Hood and see if they can identify it. Big thanks again

I bet that's it!

The Hood uses the part in the upper swivel. One is mounted so it won't drop out if disconnected. The other is upside down and will drop out if not careful when attaching your jib. Don't ask me how I know that. ;)

It's a Hood

and I'd be embarrassed to show ya the photo I took where the name shows. I must've been blind. Sending some pics to Hood now for some consulting. Thanks again everybody and Ken for the help.

make it your self

I had the same part on my hood POS 810 roller furler. I used a 3" SS bolt and a drill for the hole and then rounded the head on a grinder and also used the grinder to shave off the head of the bolt.I used heat shrink for the bushing.
You should consider changing the shackle to a snap shackle so you dont ever have to remove it from the sliding swivel
