I researched a little further to find I was wrong in what I knew carabiners as.
UK climbing shops call carabiners by that name.
Of course, shackles are used to secure ropes or cables by a different method. a bar with a threaded end is passed through "loops" in the legs of a metal U and screwed home to secure the shacle.
Duh.
