jules Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 If its any use I used to collect up lifting gear on site that the plant onsite break and used to use it when doing winch training for the clubs and stuff I still collect stuff. Stretched and sheared shackles (good quality batch tested) And I have a few connector rings pulled from oval to nearly strait again all batch tested no cheap **** is allowed on site. Just what happens when a 5t shackle is on the receiving end of a 30t 360 excavator pulling a trench box. let me know if you want some pics for the mag I will have to dig around because I gave some away to a local club chaiman.
