[quote=nohuhu]Yes, wireable pins. The failed shackle was tool tightened and taped, not wired. The only one that wasn’t.
Regarding the furler’s pigtail, picture the weight of a tensioned rig resting on that swivel pin, via the thimble. Then take the mast and rock it back and forth a little, a few thousand times. It’s easy to see how it could rotate the horizontal pin over time.
I don’t believe there’s any way to wire or tape it, so loctite seems the best solution.[/quote]
