The Green Pin® Spring Release ROV Shackle is a grade 8 shackle developed specifically for (subsea) release operations with a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). The shackle has a specially designed quick release system that can be manipulated easily by a hydraulically operated ROV arm, without compromising safety. By activating the spring the shackle is disassembled quickly and safely.
✻ For in-line use only. This shackle is assembled with wire rope sling and a monkey’s fist. For WLL 55 tons a special compression tool (not included) is required to assemble the shackle. ✻
