Those are also the half-inch shackle pin. Too small for the OP.

I can see that they will be hard to find. I'm "guessing" that @Anthony A. wants to adapt it to 1" Nylon webbing. If so, a more practical solution is to use a bold snap with a bale like this and hand sew the webbing around it:

It is pretty easy with a sailmaker's sewing awl:

He wants the kind that has a threaded clevis pin through a shackle instead of a solid bail, like this:

I've used several of those, but have never seen one with a pin opening any larger than a half inch. I've never seen a six-legged sheep either, but I suppose there might be one.

Understood, but all the Clevis pins that I have seen are 1/2" wide or less. Another option is to fold the webbing on itself in the loop area. It doesn't look as good but works.

I was responding to rwestfall, not you.
 
Another option is to thread a split ring onto the webbing loop then thread that onto the bolt snap
