What is a shackle used for

Shackles, as connecting components in lifting operations, can bring a lot of convenience to operators. Shackles commonly used in the domestic market are generally divided into three categories according to production standards: national standard, American standard, and Japanese standard, with American standard being the most commonly used. Shackles are widely used due to their small size and large load-bearing capacity. Although they are only small accessories, they play a very important role in lifting and hoisting situations.

In lifting operations, the shackle plays a connecting role. Some large mechanical equipment does not have lifting lugs and cannot be directly tied for lifting. In this case, workers usually choose to use shackles as connecting components for heavy lifting operations. Shackles are usually used in conjunction with tools such as chain hoists, wire ropes, lifting straps, lifting rings, and hooks to quickly complete heavy lifting operations.

Shackles play a very important role in lifting operations. Shackles are also important connecting components on ships, especially large tonnage shackles. They are usually installed in places that are not easy to disassemble, have long-term use, wear resistance, and are safe and reliable.
