DIRECT BUYER ANSWER

How should buyers specify lifting shackles?

A forged bow or D shackle export RFQ should define the body pattern, pin arrangement, nominal size, WLL, material or grade, finish, governing standard, marking, destination and required inspection documents.

Bow or D body

Choose the body geometry from the connection arrangement and loading condition, then confirm dimensions against the selected model.

Screw pin or safety bolt

State the pin arrangement needed for the installation, removal frequency and project specification.

WLL and evidence

Require legible marking and agree the standard, test scope, traceability and documents before order release.

PURCHASING FAQ

Before you request a quotation.

Final product suitability and commercial terms are confirmed against the selected model, application and order requirement.

What is the difference between a bow and D shackle?+

A bow body offers more connection space, while a D body is narrower. The correct choice still depends on the selected model, connection geometry and permitted loading direction.

How should I specify the pin type for a shackle?+

State whether the purchasing requirement calls for a screw pin, bolt-type or another project-specified arrangement, then include the body pattern and nominal size.

Which dimensions matter besides nominal size?+

Provide or request the relevant body, pin, jaw and connection dimensions for the chosen model. ZECH confirms these against the applicable catalog item.

What inspection documents can be reviewed before an export order?+

List the requested documentation and destination-market requirements in the RFQ. Product coverage and final documents are confirmed with the selected shackle and commercial order.
