This particular failure would not apply to the spin or jib halyards because it occurred due to rubbing on the upper shroud through-bolt, which is above both of these halyards in the mast. However you should measure where your chafing is occurring on the spin halyard so you can determine what is causing it (my main halyard chafe was ~47" away from the shackle, which indicated it was occurring inside the mast).
