Swivel Shackl-Strap or Rotation machine
Designed to prevent twisting of a strop or rope during rotation. Circus performers actively use a swivel or spinning machine to hang circus props so that they can spin in the air.
The strap is attached directly to the swivel thanks to a wide “fork” and a bolt. The width of the fork allows you to insert a strap with a width of 40-45 mm (1.6-1.8 in). The strap rests flat against the bolt across its entire width and does not deform, which increases safety and extends the life of the straps.
Great for hanging:
- Aerial hoop with a wide sling
- Aerial Straps
- Circus Loops
- and other circus props where a wide ribbon is used.
Features:
- Unlike aluminum alloy swivels, steel swivels are drop-proof, shock-resistant and more wear-resistant.
- From now on our swivels have 2 bearings:
1. The support bearing retains the ability to rotate under heavy loads.
2. The radial bearing provides good uniform rotation without backlash. - Three carabiners with a thickness of 10 mm (0.4 in) easily fit into the lower ring of the swivel.
- There is a 10 mm (0.4 in) thick bolt in the upper eye.
- The nut is secured with a removable locking ring.
This allows you to attach the swivel directly to the triangle by the narrow yoke and to the straps or sling by the wide yoke without an additional carabiner or other connecting link, saving you height and making the kit more compact. It will also improve safety and usability.
