Bow Shackle Powertex PBSB

The POWERTEX Bow Shackle PBSB is a high-strength lifting shackle designed for demanding industrial environments. Supplied with a hexagon head safety bolt, nut, and stainless steel cotter pin, it provides a secure connection for overhead lifting and rigging.

The bow shape allows for multi-directional loading, making it suitable for use with slings, chains, and wire rope assemblies. Manufactured from quenched and tempered alloy steel and hot dip galvanized, it is built for reliable daily use in construction, manufacturing, offshore, and heavy maintenance operations.

It complies with EN 13889, AS 2741 (generally), ASME B30.26, and meets the performance requirements of the US Fed. Spec. RR-C-271.

Choose the PBSB safety bolt version when:

• The shackle will remain in place for longer periods
• Vibrations or dynamic loads could cause a screw pin to rotate
• Higher safety assurance is required as part of site procedures
• You need clear traceability and batch identification for audits
