Bolt-Type/Safety Pin
This variety refers to a threaded pin that slides through the two unthreaded ears of the shackle after which is secured by a combination nut and cotter pin. The nut should be tight up against the ear and the cotter pin ends should be bent back. When properly installed, you’ll have a safe, semi-permanent connection that’s suitable for overhead lifting and suspension.Not sure what shackle to choose from E-Rigging’s extensive selection.
