Adaptive Technologies 3/8" Screw Pin Anchor Shackle 2000 lb | Black

Adaptive Technologies 3/8" Screw Pin Anchor Shackles give riggers, installers and production crews a dependable way to join two closed-end items, including wire rope assemblies, turnbuckles and eyebolts. They fit speaker suspension and installed audio work where loudspeakers, bridles and anchor points need a secure, serviceable connection.

The pin carries a small hole for a wire or cable tie, which is run through the hole and around the shackle body. This practice, called mousing, keeps the pin from loosening under vibration, a real concern on touring rigs, theater grids, arenas and houses of worship where loads hang overhead for long periods. That redundant locking feature is why shackles of this type are rated for overhead suspension.

The radius portion of the body accommodates three way bridles, so a single shackle can serve multi-leg pickup points without improvised hardware. A stated working load limit and design factor let engineers and riggers document the load path with confidence. Two finish options are available to blend hardware with the surrounding structure, ceiling or truss.
