Manufacturing Process

Production of the hot-dip galvanized butterfly clasp shackle can include:

1. Raw Material Inspection

Steel material is checked according to the required material specification.

2. Forging / Forming

The shackle body is formed using controlled manufacturing processes.

3. Machining

Connection areas and other specified dimensions are machined to the required tolerances.

4. Surface Preparation

The steel surface is cleaned and prepared before galvanizing.

5. Hot-Dip Galvanizing

The finished steel component is immersed in molten zinc to create a protective zinc coating.

6. Dimensional Inspection

Finished dimensions, connection components, and appearance are inspected.

7. Final Inspection

Products are checked before packaging and shipment.

How to Select the Correct Butterfly Shackle

Before purchasing, buyers should confirm:

1.Required size

2.Working Load Limit

3.Material grade

4.Application

5.Connection dimensions

6.Surface treatment

7.Working environment

8.Certification requirements

9.Quantity

10.Packaging requirements

For lifting applications, the WLL of the complete assembly should be considered. Do not select a lifting shackle based only on dimensions or appearance.
