Crosby® S-253 50 Ton Web Sling Shackles - Maximum Load Control for the Toughest Lifts

When the job calls for serious lifting power, the Crosby S-253 50 Ton Web Sling Shackle delivers. Designed specifically for synthetic slings, this shackle features a squared bow that distributes load across a wide surface, reducing stress points and allowing your sling to operate at 100% of its rated Working Load Limit.

This advanced design improves sling efficiency by 15% or more over traditional chain or anchor shackles and prevents the bunching and sliding that can compromise load stability. It’s the top-tier choice for heavy-duty rigging applications connecting large web or round slings to lifting lugs, pad eyes, or eye bolts.

Constructed from high-strength forged alloy steel and finished with a non-slip surface, the S-253 includes a secure screw pin closure and is clearly stamped with the working load limit, PIC code, and Crosby branding. Each unit is proof tested to 2.5 times the rated capacity for full performance confidence.
