G2130 Bow/Anchor Shackle: Premium Rigging Hardware for Demanding Lifting & Mooring Applications

When safety and reliability are non-negotiable in demanding lifting applications, our Heavy Forged Bolt Type Bow Shackles set the industry benchmark. Engineered for professionals across New Zealand, Europe, and North America, this comprehensive range from 0.5 to 55 tons is the definitive choice for construction, maritime, forestry, and heavy transport sectors where performance under extreme stress is critical. Unlike generic shackles, our product is precision-engineered with a focus on superior metallurgy, user-centric safety features, and full-compliance traceability, delivering over 40% greater value in durability, safety, and total cost of ownership.

Key Differentiated Features & Advantages

1. Advanced Forging & Material Integrity

• Differentiator: Utilizes a proprietary High-Yield Forging Process followed by controlled quenching and tempering, creating a continuous grain flow that significantly enhances fatigue life and impact resistance compared to standard cast or lesser-forged alternatives.

• Advantage: Provides exceptional toughness in sub-zero conditions and high-stress dynamic environments, reducing the risk of brittle fracture and extending service life by up to 40%.

2. Proactive Safety & Damage Detection Design

• Differentiator: Features an innovative "Safety-Sight" Indentation on the bow and a machined witness mark on the bolt pin. Any deformation or pin rotation is immediately visible, allowing for proactive removal from service before critical failure.

• Advantage: Empowers operators with a visual pre-use inspection tool, dramatically enhancing jobsite safety and preventing accidents caused by undetected damage.

3. Precision-Machined Interaction & Corrosion Defense

• Differentiator: The alloy steel bolt pin is ground-finished and paired with a self-lubricating, corrosion-inhibiting bronze bushing at the thread interface. This reduces galling, ensures smooth engagement, and protects against seizure in corrosive marine or industrial atmospheres.

• Advantage: Guarantees consistent, reliable fastening without cross-threading, even after repeated use. Simplifies maintenance and is ideal for New Zealand's coastal environments and European winter road treatments.

4. Full Compliance & Traceability

• Differentiator: Each shackle is individually serial-numbered and supplied with a digital certificate of conformity. Our manufacturing process is audited to meet and exceed ASME B30.26 standards.

• Advantage: Provides complete audit trails for safety-critical projects, simplifies compliance for European and North American contractors, and ensures hassle-free insurance and site inspections.

Technical Specifications Table

Application Versatility: Designed for the most challenging duties, including but not limited to: securing heavy machinery in NZ agriculture and forestry, rigging on European construction sites, load securing for North American heavy haulage, and as a critical component in shipbuilding and offshore mooring systems.

Why Our Bow Shackle is Your Superior Choice: We go beyond manufacturing a component; we deliver a Safety Assurance System. The combination of our pro-active visual safety design, anti-seize bushing technology, and unparalleled traceability addresses the core concerns of professional riggers and safety managers worldwide: preventing failure, reducing downtime, and ensuring absolute compliance.
