Wichard Bow Self Locking Forged Shackle CE Stamped 8 mm Product Code: pbwd-1244

Patented self-locking pin: at the pin end, the elasticity of the shackle's body locks the pin position into one of its small indentations which prevents the shackle pin from moving. It is vibration proof. Made from standard AISI 316 stainless which gives excellent corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments.

The shackles are hot dropped forged from a single piece of stainless steel which adds strength to the steel and provides a consistent quality product. The technical characteristics of every shackle is closely controlled and tested before, during and after the manufacturing process.

CE marked, these Wichard products can be used as lifting accessories. Each shackle is stamped with:

    Working Load Limit (WLL) = 5:1 safety factor of the breaking load,
    CE marking,
    Product origin,
    Manufacturer logo.

Load definitions:
Working Load (WL) = Static load at which the product will still function without excessive friction or wear or permanent deformation of components.
Breaking Load (BL) = Static load at which a major failure of one or more structural components or complete destruction of the product.
Working Load Limit (WLL) = 5:1 safety factor of the breaking load, used for industrial applications.
