Shackles

Shackles are used in lifting and static systems as removable links to connect wire rope, chain and other fittings. Screw pin shackles are used mainly for non-permanent applications. Safety bolt shackles are used for long-term or permanent applications or where the load may slide on the pin causing rotation of the pin. Cookes supply New Zealand's most comprehensive range of rated & commercial Shackles.

Synthetic Web Slings

Both web slings and round slings are an excellent choice where delicate or highly finished products must require protection from damage during lifting. They are both lightweight and easy to handle and absorb shock better than chain or wire rope. They are non-conductive which means they are safe for use in explosive atmospheres. Cookes can provide removable kevlar sleeves for both flat web slings and endless round slings.
