Product Description

The shackle pendulum with a 1/2″ opening is an affordable and convenient alternative to using an S-hook for attaching chains to swing hangers. It features a .51 ID oil light bearing and axle bolt with a lock tight nut and can accept a 12mm bolt. The bearing ID measures 13.1mm +/-0.05. Please note that the nut and bolt are not included. The bolt pin has a tamper-resistant head, which requires a special allen wrench with a hole to open and close. It can be used with any ductile iron or stamped steel hanger. With a tensile strength of 8300 lbs, this product should last up to 5 years in optimal conditions and up to 2 years in harsh conditions, although some conditions may require replacement sooner.
