Anything welding

It's a shackle not a clevis. I'm sorry I had to do it

 

Nope, it’s a Clevis mount. This is a shackle

 

I hope you don't use that particular one. That part of the world is not know for the strongest, most reliable shackles...

 

Haha nope. Just a google image. It’s funny, I put the picture in my post and I said to myself, I should change the picture, I know someone is gonna comment on this garbage CHINA shackle. I am a “Grip” in the movie industry. We do lots of rigging and use all good stuff. Usually CM or Chicago shackles

 

If your going to use a shackle on it then it's a shackle mount.

 

Union ironworker here. Mostly Crosby shackles for us but I'll generally trust any that are made in the usa

 

Haha okay. It’s a clevis. A shackle is a shackle. A clevis is what the shackle mounts to

 

The only item that is Crosby that we really use are for connecting steel cable but those are kinda old school. We usually use swage sleeves and a nycopress

 

Some people know everything. Just ask them.

 

Usually you don’t have to. They’ll just come on out and tell you haha

 

I woke up in a mood this morning since my 3 month old didn’t allow me to sleep too much. I’ve always know a shackle to be a shackle and a clevis to be a clevis but maybe other people call them different things in different places haha. Idk. My intention was not to argue Mr. @kystnTRD

 

I think this is the first time I’ve ever zoomed into your avatar and your twerking taco is hilarious!!

 

It’s pretty freaking weird but it cracks me up

 

It’s super funny! The stuff people come up with sometimes lol

 

Must be a west coast thing

I wasnt trying to argue and your regional comment is 100% acurate!

 

Besties!

 

I figured you were smarter than to use the one pictured.

But, you know, this is TW...

 

Hahaha

 

Seems Riggers & Fabricators call them Shackles .

Farmers call them a Clevis .

We have this debate now and then

 

Always wanted to use this.
