Shackle material to resist stress corrosion cracking
Shackle material to resist stress corrosion cracking
(OP)
We use a safety cable and shackle system as a redundant backup for things we attach to ceilings/roof structures. For the applications going into indoor swimming pools we have specified mostly 6%Mo fastener material to guard against SCC. I'm having trouble finding a shackle made of this material however. I had heard about some coatings with extremely high salt spray ratings and wondered if a 316 steel with some treatment might not work? Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks
Thanks

You would be better off with 2205. It isn't as corrosion resistant as a 6% Mo, but is stronger and resists cracking better.
