These shackles have a high minimum breaking load strength which is 6 x WLL, or six times the stated working load limit. This is a safety margin, not your maximum load weight allowed. Always stay within the maximum limit stamped onto the shackle.

Incorporating a screw collar to make rigging connections quick and easy, yet safe and secure. These shackles would be ideal where rigging needs connecting and dis-connecting relatively often.
