Fusion Tools, a leading innovator in rigging technology, proudly announces the launch of its cutting-edge Synthetic Shackles, specifically designed to meet the demanding needs of aerospace and defense industries. The LockJaw Synthetic Shackle represents a significant leap forward in lifting and rigging technology. This state-of-the-art product is ASME B30.26 rated for lifting, ensuring compliance with the highest industry standards while offering unparalleled performance and safety.

Key features and benefits include:

  1. Ultra-lightweight design: Significantly lighter than traditional metal shackles, reducing overall equipment weight and improving fuel efficiency in aerospace applications
  2. Innovative lock keeps the shackle securely closed, a critical aspect during vertical and angle lifts.
  3. FOD prevention: All shackle components are designed to eliminate the risk of Foreign Object Debris (FOD), a critical safety concern in aerospace and defense operations
  4. Superior strength: Meets or exceeds the strength of comparable steel shackles while being about 6 times lighter.
  5. All-weather performance: Impervious to rust and ice, making it ideal for diverse operational environments.
  6. Enhanced safety: In the unlikely event of overload failure, the shackle falls safely to the ground, minimizing potential injuries.
  7. Versatility: Functions as a Bow, Anchor, and D-Ring shackle, offering multiple rigging solutions in one product.
  8. Made in the USA: Proudly manufactured in the USA with USA components, ensuring quality control and supporting local industry  

The LockJaw Synthetic Shackle is poised to revolutionize lifting and rigging operations in aerospace and military sectors. Its unique combination of strength, safety, and lightweight design makes it an invaluable asset for applications ranging from aircraft maintenance to field operations.

“We're excited to bring this game-changing technology to the aerospace and military industries,” says West Howard, VP of Fusion Tools. “Our Synthetic Shackle not only meets the stringent requirements of these sectors but also provides significant advantages in terms of weight reduction, safety, and operational efficiency.”
