US Type G209 Screw Pin Galvanized Drop Forged Bow Anchor Shackle
The G209 bow shackle, also known as a screw pin anchor shackle, is a type of shackle commonly used for lifting and rigging applications. It is designed with a bow-shaped body and a threaded pin that secures the shackle’s two ends together.
- Construction: Carbon steel for shackle body and alloy steel for screw pin, ensuring durability and resistance to heavy loads.
- Bow Shape: The bow shape offers a larger internal clearance, allowing for the attachment of multiple slings or other lifting components.
- Screw Pin: The threaded pin is secured by tightening it into the shackle body, providing a simple and secure connection.
- Load Capacities: G209 bow shackles come in various working load limits (WLL), which indicate the maximum weight they can safely handle. It’s crucial to choose a shackle with an appropriate WLL for the intended application.
- Versatility: Bow shackles can be used in a range of industries, including construction, maritime, transportation, off-road and heavy lifting. They are commonly employed in rigging systems, anchor points, and connecting chains or straps.
Safety precautions and proper usage guidelines should always be followed when using G209 bow shackles. These include inspecting the shackle for any signs of damage or wear before each use, avoiding overloading, and maintaining secure connections. Consulting relevant safety and industry standards is essential for ensuring proper usage and compliance.

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 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.
