Bolt Type Anchor Shackle
Safety Guidelines
Always
Store and handle shackles correctly.
Inspect shackles before use and before placing into storage.
Select the correct pattern of shackle (Dee/Bow) and pin type for the application.
Fully tighten the pin before lifting.
Ensure the load acts through the centre line of the shackle.
Allow for the full resultant imposed load (consider angles).
Never
Use shackles with bent pins or deformed bodies.
Force, hammer, or wedge shackles into position.
Eccentrically load shackles (side loading).
Replace the pin with a standard bolt.
Fit pins in contact with moving parts which may unscrew them.
Shock load shackles.
Selection & Operation Guide
Selecting the Correct Shackle
Type: Use Anchor (Bow) shackles for multi-leg systems or where side loading may occur. Use Chain (Dee) shackles for straight-line pulls.
Pin Type: • Screw Pin: Suitable for general, non-permanent purposes. • Bolt Type (Safety Pin): Essential for long-term installations or where the pin may rotate under load.
⚠️ CAUTION: Loading on the Pin BS and ISO Standard shackles are rated for the pin to accept a central point load. Unless stated otherwise, assume the jaw must be fully filled and the load evenly distributed across the full pin width.
Using Shackles Safely
Avoid Side Loading: Position the shackle so the body takes the load along its center line. Use spacers if necessary to center the load on the pin.
Tightening: Tighten screw pins by hand, then lock with a small bar. Do not overtighten to the point of deforming the body. For bolt types, ensure the split cotter pin is fitted.
Choke Hitches: Place the pin through the eye of the sling. Never place the pin in contact with the "bight" of the choke or moving parts, as friction can unscrew the pin.
Maintenance & Storage
Storage: Store in a clean, dry place protected from corrosion. Never modify or galvanize a shackle without supplier approval.
Inspection: Check regularly for: distorted/stretched bodies, bent pins, damaged threads, nicks, gouges, or corrosion. illegible markings. If any defect is found, refer to a Competent Person.
