Safety factor 60:1 shackle

[peteinjp]

Don't think I need to worry about busting this one! WLL of 32 tons. My birthday present from....... too myself.

That's awesome. I'd love to have one of those hanging up!

 

[peteinjp]

Pretty f-in cool isn't it!

The same company makes 100 ton units. WOnder how much they cost?

can't tell how big it is, except guessing on the handle... need better scale reference...

(had one myself that was about 10" long or so, impressive)

Here is your reference. You should have seen the UPS struggle to get it out of the truck! He was just a little guy and I bet this was his heaviest pkg in a year or 2.

Honto omoi des!

 

[e9999]

wow, that is big. I imagine that UPS didn't insist on suitable protective bubble wrapping?

I would have thought by looking at it that this is much more than 32 tons.

Hi All:

You might want to stock-up on shear pins for your OE PTO winch if using that shackle!

You'll need to use a snatch block just to get that to pivot under load.

I'd have to upgrade the size of safety thimble on my winchline and the size of the eyelets on my winch extension to use that ginormous shackle.

 

[Frankencruiser]

Heavy is good, heavy is reliable. If it doesn't work you can always hit them with it.

Heck with that thing you don't even need a tree! Just hook the end of the winch line to it and lay it on the ground!

 

[peteinjp]

Yeah- not I need a "shackle strap" to hook onto the thing.

I'll have to get pictures of my 35-Ton shackle I have, the pin is about as big around as a beer can.
