LUGLESS JOINING SHACKLE / KENTER LINK

Lugless joining shacle also known as kenter shackle or kenter link. It is a type of shackle specifically uses in marine applications, particularly for connecting anchor chains. It is design to join two lengths of chain together while maintaining the strength and integrity of the connection. Kenter links are commonly uses in ship mooring systems, offshore platforms, and other maritime operations.

NOTE:

It’s crucial to follow proper procedures, guidelines, and safety protocols when using this lugless joining shackle. And ensuring the integrity of the anchor chain connection and overall safety during maritime operations.

SOME KEY FEATURES OF A LUGLESS JOINING SHACKLE

1. Purpose: The primary purpose of a lugless joining shackle is to connect two lengths of anchor chain together to form a continuous chain. It is typically use when deploying or retrieving anchors on ships or offshore structures.

2. Design: Lugless joining shackles consist of two separate parts: the “male” and “female” end. The male end has a large, curved pin, while the female end has a corresponding hole or socket to receive the pin. When connect, the pin passes through the hole, securing the two lengths of chain together.

3. Strength and Load Capacity: Lugless joining shackles are engineer to withstand heavy loads and high tensile forces. They are design to maintain the strength and integrity of the anchor chain connection, ensuring reliable and secure anchoring.

4. Material: Lugless joining shackles are typically made of high-strength steel. Such as alloy steel or stainless steel, to provide durability and resistance to corrosion in marine environments.

5. Installation and Removal: Lugless joining shackles require proper alignment and secure attachment to ensure a strong connection. Special tools or machinery may be use to assist with the installation and removal of Kenter shackles.

6. Certification and Standards: Lugless joining shackles uses in marine applications are often subject to classification society rules and standards. These standards ensure the quality, strength, and performance of the shackles for safe maritime operations.
