The H-Lift Shackle DIN 82101 Form A is a straight (D-type) shackle equipped with a screw collar pin, manufactured to German industrial standards for secure load handling in lifting and static systems.
Constructed from high-tensile steel to provide a robust safety factor of 5:1 for reliable industrial lifting performance.
Typically finished with hot-dip galvanization, ensuring superior corrosion resistance in demanding marine and outdoor environments.
Form A design features a straight profile with a threaded screw pin, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly in frequent-use applications.
Available in a comprehensive range of sizes from M5 to M72, with Working Load Limits (WLL) spanning from 0.1 tons up to 25 tons.
The Shackle DIN 82101 Form A is a heavy-duty straight (Dee) shackle equipped with a screw collar pin. Drop-forged from high-quality carbon steel, it is manufactured precisely to the German Industrial Standard to guarantee reliable dimensional and material properties for load handling.
⚠️ SAFETY WARNING: STRAIGHT-LINE PULLS ONLY. Form A (Dee) shackles are designed strictly for in-line tension. Do NOT use for multi-leg sling assemblies or side-loading applications, as this can twist the shackle body and compromise its structural integrity.
✅ Standard Compliance
Manufactured precisely to the German Industrial Standard DIN 82101 (Form A), guaranteeing consistent reliability and interoperability in European and international rigging setups.
🪝 Form A Design
Features a straight (Dee) shape equipped with a screw collar pin (eye bolt). This allows for quick, temporary installations that can be easily tightened and loosened by hand.
🛡️ Certified Safety (5:1)
Engineered for maximum safety with a 5:1 Safety Factor, meaning the Minimum Breaking Load (MBL) is structurally guaranteed to be five times the Working Load Limit (WLL).
✨ Corrosion Resistance
Available in multiple finishes to suit your operational environment, including hot-dip galvanized for severe outdoor use, electro-galvanized (for smaller sizes), or self-colored.

Q: When should I use a Form A (Dee) shackle instead of a Bow shackle?A: A Form A (Straight/Dee) shackle is designed strictly for straight-line pulls. It should be used when the load acts directly through the center line of the shackle. If your application involves multi-leg slings or any risk of side-loading, you must use an Anchor (Bow) shackle instead.
Q: What does "Form A" mean in the DIN 82101 standard?A: Form A specifies the pin type. Under DIN 82101, Form A means the shackle is secured with a standard screw collar pin. It is designed for temporary rigging that can be easily tightened and loosened by hand or with a small bar.

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.
