Leading UK Manufacturer of BS 3032 Small Bow 'Omega' Shackles.

We specialise in the precision manufacture and supply of high-integrity small bow shackles, engineered strictly in accordance with BS 3032 Table 4 specifications for demanding lifting, rigging, and marine applications.

Designed with a more compact internal profile for applications where clearance is restricted or tighter connection geometry is required, our heavy-duty shackles deliver dependable load management under intense operating conditions.

Utilising advanced in-house hot-forging, bending, and machining capabilities, we ensure consistent structural performance, optimal material grain flow, and superior tensile strength across every production run. Whether supplying standard BS 3032 configurations or fully bespoke hot-forged specials tailored to unique project requirements, we provide a complete, high-quality manufacturing solution.
