Green Pin

A genuine Green Pin® shackle can be identified by the green coloured pin and the marking on the shackle body and pin. Green Pin® and the colour green applied to the pin are both registered trade marks of Van Beest.

The original Green Pin® shackles are marked with for instance: WLL25T GP K 6 CE

This stands for:
WLL 25T = Working Load Limit of 25 metric tons;
GP or Bs = manufacturer's symbol;
K = traceability code;
6 = steel grade;
CE = "Conformité Européen".
