Dee Shackles RANGE
WHAT IS A DEE SHACKLE?
A dee shackle, often referred to as a bow shackle, is a type of narrow shackle that is typically made of a strong material, such as stainless steel, and is shaped like a loop of chain. The shackle consists of a curved shape with a threaded pin or bolt closure across the straight side of the "D."
WHAT ARE DEE SHACKLES USED FOR?
Whilst dee shackles have a wide range of uses, they are most commonly used for connecting lifting slings, ropes, chains, or cables to lifting devices or objects. The dee shackle’s pin closure makes the attachment and removal particularly easy, which means that they can be used in many applications where temporary connections or adjustments are needed.
WHAT DO THE DIFFERENT COLOURS OF DEE SHACKLE MEAN?
Whilst different companies of industries may make use of different coloured dee shackles to represent different types, or weights of load, there is no standardised classification of colours indicating specific qualities about the weight bearing quality of a dee shackle. Rather, an individual organisation may use different colours to indicate certain qualities about the load that a dee shackle bears.
