Dropping straight into existing rigging, the Massload Wired Load Shackle with Indicator connects via cable to a digital weight indicator for live load readings at the lift point.
Select the MAX battery-powered indicator for field and mobile operations, the M1 or M2000 for fixed panel installations, the WINOX-R stainless steel indicator for harsh washdown environments, the compact WLIGHT, or the W100 for DIN rail mounting inside a control
cabinet.
Analog and relay outputs are available on the WINOX-R and W100 models.

PRODUCT DETAILS

Massload Load Shackles are rugged, industrial-grade load cells built around the industry-standard Crosby G-2130 bolt-type anchor shackle, turning a proven rigging component into a precise tension measurement point. The internally gauged load pin is machined from high-quality 17-4 stainless steel and sealed to IP67, delivering reliable readings in wet, dirty, and demanding outdoor environments.

Because the shackle drops straight into existing rigging, it measures real working loads exactly where the force is applied without adding height or complexity to the lift. Tension accuracym is less than 1% FS, while a 150% safe overload and 300% ultimate overload rating provide a critical safety margin when working close to capacity. Standard capacities run from 8.5t to 35t, with a 55t and 85t special-order options and custom capacities available on request.

Available in both wired and 2.4 GHz wireless configurations, the Massloas Load Shackle suits permanent installations and portable field kits alike. Every unit is manufactured and calibrated in-house through Massload’s VCAP-certified Quality Management System in Canada.

Most Common Applications: Load lifting and hoisting, boat lifting and launching, crane and rigging load monitoring, wire rope and line tension measurement, proof-load and pull testing.
