The cone fid allows for remote release of Tylaska trigger snap shackles. A line is attached through the center hole of the fid and threaded through the trigger eye of the shackle. When the line is pulled, the fids engage the trigger releasing the shackle. The double cone fid is designed to pass through the trigger eye and separate from the shackle while the single cone fid cannot pass completely through the trigger eye and remains with the shackle after release. The double cone fids come with a retaining screw to lock the lanyard in place. The single cone fids have recessed area to accommodate a knot. These fids are ideal for avoiding the need to crawl out into risky locations or for single handed sailing. Show more
