Bowshackles
Bow shackle designed for stable and safe lifting operations.
At CERTEX, bow shackles are available in multiple classes and safety factors, offered with either bolt and nut or screw pin, depending on specifications and application requirements.
A bow shackle is the most commonly used type of shackle in lifting operations and industrial applications. Thanks to its wider and more rounded design, a bow shackle provides significantly better mobility than a dee shackle, making it especially suitable for multi‑leg lifting slings where several components need to be connected at a single point. The large bow opening makes it easy to attach lifting slings, chains, wire ropes, or lifting hooks without risking pinching or unnecessary stress on the equipment.
