What are the product benefits of our stainless steel shackles?

  1. Corrosion resistance: Stainless steel, also known as inox steel (from the French "inoxydable", meaning "non-corrosive" or "rust-free), is known for its excellent resistance to corrosion and rust, which makes shackles made from this material particularly useful for applications exposed to the weather or salty environments.
  2. Durability: The robustness of stainless steel ensures that the shackles remain durable and reliable over a long period of time, even under heavy loads or frequent use.
  3. Cleanliness and hygiene: Stainless steel is easy to clean and sanitise, making it ideal for applications in food processing, medicine, and other areas where hygiene is important.
  4. Aesthetics: Stainless steel has a clean and shiny appearance that remains attractive for years and is often favoured for visible fixings.
  5. Low maintenance: The maintenance of stainless-steel shackles is minimal as they do not need to be painted or coated to protect them from the environment.
  6. Strength and rigidity: The material offers high strength, which means that stainless steel shackles can support significant loads without breaking or deforming.
  7. Resistance to extreme temperatures: The stainless steel used can be used at both very low and very high temperatures, making it suitable for many different applications.
  8. Sustainability: Stainless steel is 100% recyclable, which contributes to a reduction in environmental impact and more sustainable production.

FAQs

What are shackles?

A shackle (also known colloquially as a shackle hook) is a U-shaped bracket that can be locked with a screw or pin to connect two parts.

Where are shackles used?

Shackles are primarily used to absorb tensile forces when transferring ropes, wire ropes or chains to fixed components. The bolts are often secured with nuts or cotter pins. The use of a shackle makes it easier to replace a damaged wire rope or chain. A curved shape, for example, makes the connection more flexible. Shackles are mainly used in the shipping industry, but also in conveyor technology, mechanical engineering, and many other industrial sectors.

What makes cromox clevis shackles made of stainless steel so special?

The speciality of cromox® clevis shackles made of stainless steel lies in their exceptional quality and performance. These clevis shackles are specifically designed to support a high load capacity, making them essential for demanding applications in industrial, marine and many other sectors. The stainless steel from which the clevis shackles are made ensures durability and resistance to corrosion, even in humid or salty environments. Furthermore, cromox® clevis shackles are characterised by precise workmanship and a quality class that meets the highest safety standards. Their design combines functionality with safety, as they are equipped with locking pins that prevent unintentional release. As a result, cromox® clevis shackles offer a reliable and safe connecting component for a wide range of lifting and fastening tasks.

What makes our cromox® D-shackles unique?
