Wide Body Shackles
As the name implies, these shackles have a wider bow design. This increased radius promotes a better D/d ratio so a thimble on your lifting sling may not be necessary. The increased bow radius can also help extend the working lifespan of your lifting sling with better load distribution.
When selecting a shackle for your application, always ensure the working load limit (WLL) at least meets or exceeds the load for the application. Your shackle WLL should also be comparable to the other rigging hardware and slings being used.

Shackle Pin Types: Screw Pin, Round Pin, and Bolt Type
Screw Pin Shackle uses a threaded pin inserted through the shackle ears and tightened down. The fast and easy connection and disconnection of these shackles make them convenient for “pick and place” applications. Screw pin shackles can be used in applications where side loading is present with consideration to the reduced WLL.
*Screw pin shackles are not recommended for long-term or permanent applications.
*Tighten the screw pin before each pick.
Round Pin Shackle uses a round, unthreaded pin which is secured by a cotter pin. Round pin shackles are only to be used in applications where the load is applied strictly in-line such as suspension, tie-down, or towing.
*Round pin shackles are not recommended for overhead lifting applications, where multiple sling legs are used, or where side loading may occur.
Bolt-Type Shackle uses a nut, and cotter pin combination to secure the bolt in place. Bolt-type shackles are able to be used in any application a screw pin or round pin shackles are used. Bolt-type shackles can be used in applications where side loading is present with consideration to the reduced WLL. Bolt-type shackles are recommended for long-term or permanent applications.
