Advantages of JB Lifting Shackles Over Competitors

Application Guidelines

Overhead Lifting Applications:

• Selecting the Right Shackle: For overhead lifting, always choose a tow shackles​ that is rated for the load you intend to lift. Ensure that the shackle has sufficient strength and is compatible with the lifting equipment, such as hoists, cranes, and slings.
• Correct Shackle Orientation: Always ensure that the shackle is aligned properly with the load. The pin should be positioned at the top of the shackle, ensuring a straight pull on the load.
• Safety Check: Regularly inspect shackles used in overhead lifting to prevent failure under heavy or dynamic loads. Ensure that the shackles are free from cracks or signs of wear before each use.

Marine Applications:

• Corrosion Resistance: For marine applications, JB Lifting shackles made of stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized steel are ideal. These shackles resist corrosion and rust in harsh seawater environments.
• Usage in Towing and Securing Loads: Shackles are used to secure loads in towlines, cargo handling, and marine lifting. Always choose shackles that provide a reliable connection and meet the weight requirements of the load.
• Inspection Frequency: Shackles used in marine environments must be inspected more frequently due to the harsh weather and saltwater exposure. Clean shackles after each use and inspect them for any signs of corrosion.

Industrial and Construction Applications:

• Rigging Applications: Shackles are often used in rigging to connect lifting points, slings, and hoisting equipment. Ensure the shackle is designed for high-load capacities and heavy-duty operations.
• Securing Heavy Loads: For securing machinery or heavy loads on construction sites, JB Lifting shackles provide the strength required for lifting and towing. Properly secure all shackles before lifting or moving any loads to ensure stability.
• Maintenance of Shackles in Construction: Shackles in construction environments may face rough handling and harsh conditions. Regularly lubricate and inspect shackles to prevent wear and ensure safe operation.

Do's and Don'ts for JB Lifting Shackles

Do’s

1. Do Inspect Shackles Before Use: Always inspect shackles for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage before using them. If any issues are found, replace the shackle immediately.
2. Do Check Load Capacity: Ensure the shackle is rated for the load you intend to lift. Never exceed the manufacturer's load limit to ensure safe operation.
3. Do Use the Correct Size: Choose shackles that match the size and capacity required for the load and the lifting equipment. A mismatched size can lead to failure.
4. Do Align the Shackle Properly: When using rigging shackles​, ensure they are aligned correctly with the load and lifting equipment. This helps prevent unnecessary wear and ensures efficient lifting.
5. Do Tighten Pins Securely: Make sure the screw or bolt pin is tightened fully before lifting any load. A loose pin can cause a catastrophic failure.
6. Do Perform Regular Maintenance: Lubricate the pins, inspect the shackles regularly, and keep them clean to prevent corrosion and ensure long-term performance.

Don’ts

1. Don’t Overload Shackles: Never exceed the recommended load capacity of the shackle. Overloading can cause permanent damage or failure, leading to accidents.
2. Don’t Use Damaged Shackles: If a shackle shows signs of deformation, cracks, or severe corrosion, do not use it. Always replace damaged shackles.
3. Don’t Use Shackles in Side Loading: Shackles are designed to be used in straight-line loading. Side loading can loosen pins and cause shackle failure.
4. Don’t Use Incorrect Pin Types: Avoid using shackles with mismatched pins or pins that are not designed for the specific shackle. This can lead to instability and unsafe lifting.
5. Don’t Use Shackles Without Proper Safety Measures: Always ensure that the lifting area is clear, and follow all relevant safety protocols when using tow shackles​ for lifting or rigging operations.
6. Don’t Stack Shackles Improperly: Avoid stacking shackles on top of each other, as this can cause warping, scratching, and damage to their surface.
7. Don’t Leave Shackles in Harsh Environments: Don’t leave shackles exposed to corrosive substances, chemicals, or extreme temperatures when not in use. This will reduce their lifespan and performance.
8. Don’t Use Shackles With Incompatible Equipment: Ensure the shackles you use are compatible with the lifting equipment (e.g., slings, hooks, cranes). Mismatched equipment can result in unstable lifts.

Maintenance and Inspection Guide

Inspection Checklist:

• Check for Wear and Tear: Look for signs of wear, cracks, or deformation in the shackle body, pin, or bolt. A damaged shackle should be replaced immediately.
• Inspect the Pin and Bolt Mechanism: Check the pins for any signs of rust, corrosion, or loosening. Ensure that the pins are securely tightened, and the cotter pins or retaining clips are properly in place.
• Look for Corrosion: Shackles exposed to harsh environments, especially in marine or industrial settings, should be checked for signs of corrosion. If any corrosion is found, clean the shackle immediately or replace it if needed.
• Verify Load Capacity: Ensure that the shackle is not overloaded and is used within its rated load capacity. Overloading can cause significant damage to the shackle and create safety hazards.

Lubrication and Cleaning:

• Lubricate Pins: Lubricate the pins and bolts with an appropriate lubricant (such as anti-seize or heavy-duty grease) to prevent rust and ease the insertion and removal of the pin.
• Cleaning: Regularly clean shackles to remove dirt, debris, or chemicals. For shackles used in marine environments, rinse them with fresh water after exposure to saltwater.
• Protect from Harsh Elements: When not in use, store shackles in a dry, clean environment to prevent moisture accumulation and rust.

Storage Recommendations:

• Store in a Dry Area: Store shackles in a dry area where they are not exposed to chemicals, saltwater, or extreme temperatures.
• Avoid Stacking: Do not stack shackles on top of each other to avoid warping or damage. Use hooks or racks to hang shackles securely.
• Keep Away from Corrosive Substances: Avoid storing shackles near corrosive materials or chemicals that could damage their surface.
