Bring your recovery gear into the 21st century with Rugged Ridge Soft Rope Shackles. Constructed of an ultra-strong HMPE rope material, these shackles are considerably stronger than steel with a 30,000 lb. breaking strength and, unlike nylon they actually repel water, resist abrasions, and have very low elasticity making them the obvious choice for off-road recovery. Unlike rigid steel shackles, Rugged Ridge Soft Rope Shackles are always pliable so they can be manipulated easily in tight spaces, even wearing gloves, allowing for painless attachment to tow hooks or recovery points. Better yet, Rugged Ridge Soft Rope Shackles won’t ever rust, nor will they open under load however, they can be opened easily once a load is removed, making them an ideal addition to your off-road recovery gear.

HMPE (= High Modulus Polyethylene) With its specific gravity of 0.97g/cm3 it is lighter than water and floats. The fibre possesses high strength and a high elastic modulus and is very resistant against abrasion, moisture, UV and chemicals.
