Ideal for a more semi-permanent connection and/or more long term lifting operation the British Standard Large Dee Shackle safety bolt type is manufactured to BS3032 standards.
About the British Standard Large Dee Shackle safety bolt type
Only to be used for inline operations with no side pull these shackles offer a safer alternative to the standard screw pin large dee shackles. Once the safety bolt is fixed into place a cotter pin is inserted through the nut to ensure the bolt cannot come out. They may not be quite as quick to use as a screw type pin but are much safer and so perfect for long term use in one place.
Rope Services Direct can supply these large safety bolt dee shackles in working load limits ranging from 0.25 tonne up to 20 tonne and incremental dimensions to suit; please refer to the table below for all the technical details.
Providing excellent safe connections these large dee shackles also have a 5 x WLL minimum breaking load safety factor so you can be assured of safe lifting within the stated working load limits; these should never be exceeded.
