Got a little side project, and I'm looking for something that I have seen sold but have no idea the name. Its a brakcet to retain a chain, seen used on trailer ramps before.

Northern used to sell these is a weld on piece but no more....no luck at redneck browsing the catalog. If I can find some I will order them up otherwsie I know where an old one is and I made a tracing this weekend, if I cant find one online Im gonna digitize it in cad and send it to someone with a plasma. For now I made a 2 second sketch in ms paint. ANyone know a name for this thing. It looks roughly like this:

It's similar to a keyhole chain anchor, but obviously the keyhole anchor has a hole shaped like...a keyhole. o_O
 
Yes you are the man...and I just found a new website!
thanks
 
use these all over on the towable machines.
 
Ron, I made this into a dxf if you want it.

Scott, You have the right file in a dxf, or you convereted my crappy rendering?
 
We have them burnt out to match the chain size.

What is the chain size you are useing?

something about the combo of "banjo" and "hole" with that shape makes me snicker.
Just need to find a way to squeeze "corn" in there.
