DIN82101 Type A / Type C Hot Dip Galvanized D Shackle
DIN 82101 is a standard established by the Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN), the German Institute for Standardization. This standard specifically outlines the design, dimensions, material requirements, and performance criteria for dee shackles, commonly known as DIN 82101 shackles.
Design and Construction:
DIN 82101 shackles typically feature a D-shaped body, Type A with a threaded pin, Type C with a bolt and nut across the openings of the “D” shape. This design allows for easy connection and detachment of loads, making them versatile for lifting, rigging, and various load-bearing applications. These shackles are commonly made from high-quality alloy steel, providing exceptional strength and durability.
The Dee shape of the shackle is crucial as it allows for multi-directional loading without compromising its integrity. This design feature is especially vital in lifting scenarios where loads may shift or move unpredictably.
Load Capacity: These shackles are available in various load capacities, ranging from a few tons to several tens of tons, catering to diverse lifting and rigging needs.
Material Strength: High-grade carbon steel construction ensures superior strength and resistance to deformation under heavy loads or adverse conditions.
Threading: The threaded pin or bolt in DIN 82101 shackles is designed for secure fastening, preventing accidental disengagement during operations.
Corrosion Resistance: Many shackles are coated or treated to resist corrosion, enhancing their longevity, especially in harsh environments.
Markings: DIN 82101 shackles are typically marked with essential details such as the manufacturer’s mark, size, working load limit for easy identification and compliance verification.
Applications and Usage
The versatility and strength of DIN 82101 shackles make them indispensable across various industries:
Lifting, offshore and maritime, matarial handling, construction, heavy equipment.

Cautions:
1. Load Limits: Each shackle is rated for specific load capacities. Exceeding these limits can result in failure, causing accidents. Always verify the load rating and use appropriately sized shackles for the task.
2. Regular Inspection: Inspect shackles before each use for signs of wear, deformation, or damage. Any compromised shackle should be replaced immediately to prevent accidents.
3. Proper Installation: Ensure the pin or bolt is properly secured and tightened to prevent accidental release during operations.
4. Correct Angles: Use the shackle within its intended angle range. Avoid side-loading as it can weaken the shackle and compromise its strength.
Drop forged, Quenched and tempered, with Alloy pins, hot dip galvanized.
Max proof load is 2.2 times the working load limt, Min breaking strength is 6 times the WLL.
