Description
Overview
The Abaco SWS2500 Swivel Shackle connects compatible lifting equipment and allows 360-degree rotation when positioning a slab. Its steel construction and compact form make it a connection component for Abaco lifters and forklift booms, rather than a slab-gripping device on its own.
Features
- Swiveling connection allows the lifter and slab to be oriented through 360 degrees.
- Steel body with a listed 5,500 lb loading capacity.

Applications
Use the SWS2500 as the rotating connection in a compatible slab-lifting arrangement. It is useful when the slab must be turned for positioning without changing the role of the lifter or boom.

- The shackle rating does not increase the allowable load of the connected lifter or boom.
