Mean Mother

Pair (2X) 4.7T D Shackle

19mm X 22mm

Shackles are an essential recovery item and you can never have too many of them. They are most commonly used to attach recovery straps, tree trunk protectors, winch extension straps & snatch blocks. The larger 4.7-tonne shackles are best suited to electric winch recovery situations.

The most commonly used shackle is the "Bow" because its shape allows for bulky items to be easily attached. 
Shackles should only be used on vehicles fitted with recovery rated points featuring closed eyelets.

• High visibility D shackles. 
• W.L.L compliant with AS/NZS 2741.2002 load requirements.
• Max capacity: 4700kg

TIP: To avoid seizing the screw pin, it's always a good idea to back off about 1/2 to 1 turn after fully hand tightening. Shackle pins can seize due to the force exerted during recovery operations.

BEFORE USE: Inspect shackles before and after use for any damage. If pins are hard to turn or the shackle has been overstressed, it should be immediately replaced.

CAUTION: Shackles can become a lethal missile if something should break or fail during a recovery. Ensure that all spectators are well clear and all recovery lines have a dampening blanket on them (Refer page 41). Never load a shackle across its width because the load will be imposed on the threads. The force must be at right angles to the pin.
