The POWERTEX Bow Shackle PBSB is a high-strength lifting shackle designed for demanding industrial environments. Equipped with a hexagon-head safety bolt, nut, and stainless-steel cotter pin, it provides a secure connection for overhead lifting and rigging.
The bow shape allows for multi-directional loading, making it suitable for use with slings, chains, and wire rope assemblies. Manufactured from quenched and tempered alloy steel and hot-dip galvanized, it is built for reliable daily use in construction, manufacturing, offshore, and heavy maintenance operations.
It complies with EN 13889, AS 2741 (generally), ASME B30.26, and meets the performance requirements of the US Fed. Spec. RR-C-271.
