Default Wll....

Ever notice the stamping on this stuff??? The Working Load Limit is stamped on( should be ) all these items. I looked at some Synthetic line with like 10,000 break strength and a hook with a 3000 WLL...
I must be confused or something... Anyway being a farmboy i put a lot of AG stuff to use whenever i can make it fit


The stamp usually reads in tons it was a 1 1/2 WLL .... My shackles are 6 1/2 WLL $2.89 at TSC

So I figured...Farm equipment is beefy, and their hitch pins are hardened steel.

Any farm implement store will have them. Something like the store "Tractor Supply" you could probably order them online.
