Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is Shackle?
    • Shackle, which was known as gyves during older times, is most commonly used for lifting, securing or rigging heavy loads, objects and equipment.

      Lifting shackles work as the final link in a connection chain or sling setup, and their primary task is to make a secure physical connection between a load-lifting device (a hoist hook or a sling) and the freight or load that needs to be either supported or moved.

  • What is a D Shackle?
    • There are many types of Shackles available in the market that caters to different needs of the lifting industry: Anchor shackle, D shackle, Snap shackle, Twist shackle, etc.

      Of all the shackles, the most commonly used is D type shackle, also called Chain shackle. It has been named so because of its shape, which resembles ‘D’ and is narrower than an Anchor shackle.

      Like all other shackles, a D shackle also consists of two main parts: the body and the bolt or the pin. Its principal function is to provide a secure connection between two points, and also provide the convenience to be opened and closed as required, allowing or preventing disconnection.

  • What are D shackles used for?
    • The primary use of a D shackle is that it works as a connecting link in rigging systems and also in most common everyday scenarios where lifting is required. The biggest benefit it draws is that it can be easily connected and disconnected.

  • What is the basic difference between D shackle and Bow shackle?
    • There is slight difference in the two shackles as the D shackle is narrower than a Bow shackle and in addition it also has a pin close or a threaded pin.

  • How do we calculate the SWL of a D shackle?
    • To calculate SWL of a D shackle in tons this formula is applied: SWL= 3 x D2.
