what is the diameter of the shackle?

the inside diameter (where you see the black rubberized area) is 1 1/16 inches across. Perfect size for a typical door handle. Enjoy

I didn't measure it but it appears to be about 3/4 inch. It is definitely not only 1/4 inch as Skeeter reported.

The inside dimensions of this long shackle padlock are 2-3/8" height by 1-1/4" wide. One of the images has a specification drawing although it is the 8th photo so not shown in the icons (click on any image and then enlarge it and it then shows all the images)

The twine is approximately 1/8 inch. It's perfect for trussing chickens and turkeys or tieing herb bundles together.

It should work fine. The gap between the shackle and the case is 15/16". The openning that the shackle spans is 11/16".

The shackle is too large to fit through the lock hole. A round padlock with shielded shackle would be a better fit. For example: Master Lock 40DPF Round Padlock with Shielded Shackle, 2-3/4-inch, Stainless Steel

I think you are looking at the one with the shackle that goes over the door knob. I purchase the one you mount on the wall and put keys in, its much smaller, its 4-3/4" (12cm) H x 3-1/4" (83mm) W x 1-½" (38mm) D.

I have not measured mine since I got it, it is a bit bigger than other carabiners but I have not found that to be a problem, I like the fact that it is a big bigger and sturdier. I highly recommend this product!

I can second the 5/16 measurement as I measured them and on the package as well it states that the shackle is 5/16 inch diameter.

I recall it was about 1-1.13" opening. I stopped using it after about a year when it began to rust

1 1/4" outer edge to outer edge...I have no way to measure the inner diameter...it has been permanently bonded to my cane.

The shackle is not over one inch. When closed the shackle runs about 7/8 of an inch on the interior.

I have it already installed. Best I can tell it is 2 3/8" in diameter. I didn't cover the area of my old set, but it's a great lock. I love it!

My mom has it and she is in another state, but I would guess about an inch to an inch and a quarter. It is the same diameter as canes that I have seen in stores.

It would be for a small lock, maybe a 3/16" shackle could fit through the 2 holes.

1/4" (6.35mm) straight shank, but it will take up to a 17/64" (6.75mm) straight shank with some loss of holding power. Good build quality.

According to Master Lock, the opening is 3/4" wide and when locked it has a depth of about an inch (from the underside of the shackle to the bottom of that opening). See their specs page here: http://www.masterlock.com/personal-use/product/187XD
