Incorrect seating of the pin may be due to a bent pin, too tight fitting thread or misalignment of the
pin holes. Do not use the shackle under these circumstances. Never replace a shackle pin except
with one of the same size, type and make as it may not be suitable for the loads imposed.
Make sure that the shackle is supporting the load correctly, i.e. along the axis of the shackle body
centerline, avoid introduction of bending loads, unstable loads and do not apply overloads.
Side loads should be avoided as well, as the products are not designed for this purpose. If side loads
cannot be avoided, the following reduction factors must be taken into account:
Load angle
Reduction for side loading, New Working
