Performance and Ratings

- Materials: high-strength alloy steel with finishes for durability and corrosion resistance.
- Traceability: marked bodies and pins for size, manufacturer, and rating identification.
Never exceed the Working Load Limit. Follow applicable standards and your site lifting plan.
How to Select the Right Shackle
- Match the capacity: choose a WLL that meets or exceeds the required load with appropriate safety factors.
- Pick the connection type: screw pin for frequent assembly and disassembly, bolt-type for heavier or more permanent connections.
- Account for load direction: anchor or bow styles handle angular loads, chain or D styles are best for straight-line pulls.
- Verify fit: check pin diameter, jaw opening, and inside width against rigging hardware and slings.
- Consider the environment: select finishes and materials based on exposure to moisture, chemicals, or saltwater.
