Engineered for extreme towing. Delivered with confidence

Towing demands strength, safety, and total dependability. That’s why Green Pin^®, a brand of Royal Van Beest, developed the Towing Bow Shackle. A rugged, smartly designed solution for the toughest towing operations. Created in close collaboration with our long time U.S. partners DCL and Anchor Marine, this shackle was developed in response to real market needs. Both companies now serve as exclusive distributors in the United States, ensuring nationwide availability of the product. Of course, like all Green Pin^® solutions, the Towing Bow Shackle is available worldwide through our trusted distributor network.

Built for reliability

The Green Pin^® Towing Bow Shackle is designed and manufactured by Royal Van Beest in the Netherlands, and was developed specifically to meet U.S. market requirements.

It features a fixed double nut with a cotter pin, a robust safety mechanism that keeps the pin securely in place under high vibration and dynamic shock loads. This is particularly valuable in towing environments, where uncontrolled movement can lead to dangerous failures.

Whether used in temporary setups or long-term towing systems, the secure locking system gives professionals the confidence they need in the field.
