NEW Crosby G-2170 Grommet Shackle
The Crosby Group has developed the new G-2170 Grommet Shackle Series for lifting applications requiring high capacity with limited or tight headroom such as those found in chemical plants, refineries, interstate highway construction and offshore derrick barge cranes.
- Provides a bearing surface that is at least 5 times that of a round shackle
- Increases the usable sling strength minimum by 60% and greatly improves life of the grommet sling.
- Designed for use with single or double large diameter grommets.
- All sizes are RFID equipped in bow and pin.
- Utilizes new Crosby Easy-Loc(R) Bolt Securement System.
The Grommet Shackle is galvanized with capacities 75-300 metric tons which are proof tested to 2 times the Working Load Limit (WLL) and have an Ultimate Load of 5 times the WLL. The G-2170 metric ton ratings are embossed on the side of the bow, RFID EQUIPPED on the bow and pin, Quenched and Tempered for maximum strength and made from cast alloy steel. The bows and pins are Dimetcoted and the pins are then painted red.

JC Renfroe Plate Clamps
Pictured to the right is Clay Kelly, Operations Manager in Houston, TX, with a JC Renfroe Clamp. These horizontal and vertical clamps are used to lift plate steel during rigging applications. Whether it's big, small or somewhere in between, if your operation depends on using the right type of lifting clamp for the job, you need a Renfroe clamp.
