    Flexible Shackles for Lifting

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Shackles. Flexible Shackles for Lifting.
    A flexible and lightweight option for lifting. Made of polyethylene rope with a nylon cover, these shackles wrap around a variety of lifting points without marring surfaces. All meet ASME specifications for rigging and lifting equipment. To close them, pull the bar through the loop and slide the rubber lock over each end of the bar. Keep these shackles away from sharp edges, which could cause them to break and fail.
    Note: Capacities listed are for vertical lifting only. As the lift angle changes from vertical, the amount of weight the shackle can lift is significantly reduced.

    Safety Cotter Pin

    Lift with web slings. The wide, flat bow on these shackles prevents your sling from folding or bunching to keep loads distributed equally. All meet ASME specifications for rigging and lifting equipment. Look for the manufacturer's stamp to confirm the size and weight capacity. Also known as webbing shackles. Optional spools fit on the pin to center attachments and keep rope from sliding across the pin.
    Note: Capacities listed are for vertical lifting only. As the lift angle changes from vertical, the amount of weight the shackle can lift is significantly reduced.
    Safety Cotter Pin—Both a threaded nut and cotter pin hold these shackles in place. Also known as bolt-type shackles, the pin won’t slide out with movement. This means you can use these shackles with vibrating equipment and for long-term rigging setups.
    High-Strength Galvanized Alloy Steel—Stronger than galvanized steel with corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments.
