Van Beest Green Pin® Bolt Type Chain Shackles - Precision Rigging for Inline Loads

Van Beest Green Pin® Bolt Type Chain Shackles are engineered for high-performance, permanent rigging applications. Made in Europe from quenched and tempered Grade 6 steel and finished with a hot-dip galvanized coating, these shackles provide reliable strength and corrosion resistance in demanding environments. The distinctive green pin makes them easy to identify on-site.

This chain-style shackle features a straight-sided body for inline or straight-pull applications, where side loading is not a concern. Compared to anchor shackles, chain shackles generally offer a higher working load limit relative to their size-but are best suited for direct tensioning, not angular or racking loads.

A double safety system includes both a safety bolt and a split pin, ensuring the pin stays securely in place even under vibration or movement. This makes them ideal for long-term or semi-permanent installations where shackle security is critical.

Key Features:

• High-Tensile Grade 6 Steel: Quenched and tempered for reliable strength and durability.
• Green Pin® Visibility: Trademarked green pin makes field identification easy and consistent.
• Double Safety Design: Equipped with both a safety bolt and a split pin to prevent accidental pin rotation.
• Hot-Dip Galvanized Finish: Provides corrosion resistance for long-term use in outdoor or industrial environments.
• Chain Shackle Profile: Optimized for straight, inline pulls-ideal for structural, marine, or fixed rigging setups.

Note: Chain shackles are not recommended for side or racking loads. For multi-directional applications, consider using a Van Beest anchor shackle instead.
