26-Ton Super Soft-Shackles - 5 Entries
5 ENTRIES
Length: ± 40cm Rating: 26-Ton Quantity: Sold per unit, not in pairs. *Soft shackle colours may vary from batch to batch. If the colour is a problem, please enquire before buying. Our soft shackles are spliced from locally sourced high-quality Dyneema, which is lightweight, strong, and safer to use than traditional steel shackles. We recommend using a soft shackle that is rated lighter than the recovery rope's rating or that of the anchor point on your vehicle when doing snatch recoveries. This way, the soft shackle is the weaker point and should the pulling force become too much, rather have the soft shackle break than your kinetic rope OR A PART OF YOUR VEHICLE. Therefore, soft shackles should be seen as a consumable item in offroad recovery.Out of stock

Legal Disclaimer
It is paramount to underscore that the improper use of kinetic ropes can pose severe risks to both individuals and property. Due to the remarkable stretch capability, exceeding 20% of its length, the kinetic energy generated during recovery or towing can surpass the structural limits of anchoring points, connectors (such as shackles), or the kinetic rope itself. This elastic property can lead to a potentially dangerous slingshot effect, resulting in significant harm or damage.
Rusty 4×4 assumes no liability for any injury or property damage arising from the use of these kinetic ropes. It is imperative to exercise extreme caution, adhere to safety guidelines, and receive proper training when employing such equipment in recovery operations. Safety should always be the foremost consideration when dealing with kinetic ropes to mitigate potential risks effectively.
