Crosby S-209T Theatrical Shackles – Low-Visibility, High-Strength Rigging
The Crosby S-209T Theatrical Shackles are purpose-built for stage, studio, and entertainment rigging where performance, safety, and discretion are critical. Forged from high-strength steel, these screw pin anchor shackles are quenched and tempered for durability and feature a flat black powder coat finish to reduce light reflection. With sizes from 3/8" to 3/4" and working load limits up to 4-3/4 metric tons, the S-209T series provides reliable rigging performance with a clean, non-intrusive appearance.
