Looks like a twisted and busted link of a chain.

I think that the answers you got so far means they don't have a clue? I don't either! Monty

looks like alot of force to twist and break that thing, maybe cargo hold down piece?

Thanks Monty and Mrtuff!

Both ends look like they were attached to something.

I like the idea of used to hold down cargo on a ship.

I don't know all of the dimensions, but this is a pandrol clip to hold rails to railroad ties. The diameter of the rod is approximately 7/8".The one in the picture is chrome because it is a manufacturers brochure picture. These are bare metal in the field. A broken pandrol clip is my guess.

I am not sure this is a pandrol clip. They are not the same. Mine is twisted. It would require a huge force to bend this.

I am still thinking it is part of a cargo hold down piece. Mrtuff seems correct!

Thanks.
