Quick Release Pitching Shackle

Altrad Generation’s Quick Release Pitching Shackle provides a fast, controlled way to lift and pitch individual Trench Sheets into position. The Shackles use a spring-loaded pin system that grips the trench sheet through its lifting hole, allowing for easy positioning and safe release from the ground. This makes it ideal for use in excavation and sheet piling operations where speed and safety are critical.

Each shackle is stamped with its Safe Working Load (S.W.L.) and should only be used for the intended application - lifting and positioning single trench sheets. Misuse for other purposes is not advised.
