Model Number: G80 Bow shackle
-
Cautions:
-
Check Before Use:
Always inspect the shackle for cracks, deformation, excessive wear, or corrosion before each use. -
Verify Load Rating:
Ensure the working load limit (WLL) is clearly marked and sufficient for your intended lifting application. -
Correct Pin Installation:
Make sure the pin is properly threaded and securely seated. Never use a shackle with a loose or mismatched pin. -
Avoid Side Loading:
Bow shackles are designed for in-line loading. Avoid applying loads at angles that may cause bending or twisting. -
Do Not Modify:
Never weld, grind, or modify the shackle in any way. -
Use Proper Fit:
Ensure the shackle fits properly with the chain, sling, or hook and does not restrict movement or create stress concentrations. -
Temperature Limits:
Use the shackle within the specified temperature range provided by the manufacturer, as extreme temperatures may reduce strength. -
Storage and Maintenance:
Store in a dry, clean area and apply lubrication if necessary to prevent rust.
