Since late 1990s ASDO has been forging shackle bows for mooring line anchorage. Offshore industry standard D-type anchor shackles and joining shackles according to ISO 1704 as well as shackles of special design have been produced from approved forged material. We also stock 400t round steel in offshore quality for the shortest delivery requirements and small orders.
ASDO capabilities allow for small increments of sizes and tolerances, best material utilisation and minimal waste for any custom-designed shackle any specific needs you may have, e.g. towing shackles, anchor pile shackles or LTM accessories In offshore mooring grades.
Due to the flexible production process there is no limitations on batch size of customised shackles: ranging from a few to many hundred pieces within the shortest time frame.
