Description
Overview
The Abaco ABS22 Bow Shackle is a connection component for straight lifts where rotation is not needed. It incorporates a split pin and safety bolt and is intended for compatible Abaco lifter, boom and scissor-clamp arrangements.
Features
- Split pin and safety bolt help retain the shackle pin.
- Stainless-steel construction with a galvanized finish, as specified by Abaco.
- Compact connector with a listed loading capacity of 3,300 lb (1,500 kg).

Applications
Use the ABS22 for a compatible straight-lift connection. Choose a swivel connection instead when the lifting arrangement requires rotation; the bow shackle does not provide the swivel action of the SWS series.
Selection and Use
- Match the connector dimensions to the lifter, boom or clamp being used.
- The 3,300 lb shackle rating does not increase the allowable load of the connected equipment.
- The split pin and safety bolt are part of the specified connection arrangement.
