Shackles, wire rope slings and fittings

Use the showroom to compare fittings and discuss how they go together. For shackles, we check the manufacturer's working load rating and dimensions. For wire rope assemblies, we agree the construction, length and end fittings against your specification.

From specification to completed assembly

Understand the job
We confirm what will be lifted, where the attachment points are and how the sling connects to the load. For a replacement, include the tag, an overall photograph and dimensions. Send the drawing with your enquiry if you have one.
Agree the configuration
We confirm the working length and the specified rope, eyes, thimbles, hooks or master links. Before making the assembly, we agree the points between which the stated length is measured so it fits your equipment.
Make the assembly in our workshop
In our wire rope workshop, we prepare the rope to the agreed length, swage the ferrules on the press and assemble the specified end fittings.
Prepare the order
We check the lengths, quantities and fittings against the specification. If your purchase requires a product passport, manufacturer documents or a load test report, state that in your enquiry so the paperwork and any testing can be agreed in advance.

What to order: a shackle, a terminated rope or a sling

The showroom lets you compare actual shackles, thimbles and links. The workshop makes finished assemblies to an agreed specification. Tell us what you are replacing or what you need to lift so we can determine whether you need one fitting or a complete assembly.

A rigging shackle for an attachment point

For a replacement, send a photo of the markings and the dimensions of the eye or link it connects to. For a bulk order, list the quantity for each working load limit. This gives us a basis for comparing Van Beest and Haklift screw-pin or bolt, nut and cotter-pin designs.

Steel wire rope with end terminations

If you need a specified rope length, give us the diameter, rope construction and the required fitting at each end. One end might need a thimbled eye while the other follows a drawing. If you supply your own rope, we review its specification before confirming whether it can be swaged.

A complete custom wire rope sling

To quote a sling, we need the load weight, lifting arrangement, working length, number of legs and end fittings. For a replacement, include a picture of the tag and an overall view. For a batch with different lengths or fittings, list each configuration separately.
