Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the material of this shackle?

This shackle is manufactured from high-quality 316 grade stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion.

Can this be used for overhead lifting?

This shackle is designed for general rigging and marine applications; it should not be used for overhead lifting unless specifically certified for such use.

What is the breaking load?

The shackle has a breaking load of 2417kg.

How many shackles are included?

The product is supplied as a single unit (SFSSD08).

Is the pin removable?

Yes, the shackle features a screw collar pin that can be fully removed for easy installation.

Troubleshooting

The screw pin is difficult to turn.

Clean the threads with a wire brush to remove salt buildup or debris, then apply a small amount of marine-grade lubricant.

The collar vibrates loose during use.

Ensure the pin is fully tightened and consider using a locking wire through the pin head if the application involves high vibration.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion
  • High structural integrity with a 2417kg breaking load
  • Easy-to-use screw pin mechanism for frequent adjustments
  • Durable stainless steel construction

Cons

  • Sold as a single unit, requiring multiple purchases for complex rigging
  • Not intended for overhead lifting unless certified for that specific use
  • Screw collar may loosen over time if subjected to high vibration

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, unscrew the collar pin fully, pass the shackle through your connection points, and re-insert the pin. Hand-tighten the collar until secure; avoid overtightening with pliers, as this can damage the threading. To maintain the integrity of the 316-grade stainless steel, rinse the shackle with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to remove salt deposits. Periodically check the pin for signs of wear or cross-threading, and replace immediately if the threads appear stripped or the bow shows visible deformation.
