Used in place of a traditional bow/D shackle, HardKorr's Extra-Long Heavy Duty Soft Shackle gives you a long, safe, strong, and convenient tie-down point from your 4×4's rated recovery point. It's particularly useful when used on anchor points with edges due to the rope's long Durakorr(TM) bound centre, otherwise, it can be doubled over to create a strong recovery point. These heavy duty soft shackles significantly reduce the risk of serious injury or damage during recovery from encountering breakages.
HardKorr shackles are built with their Durakorr(TM) synthetic - a material that's stronger than traditional shackles, lightweight, safe, and more abrasion resistant than some steels. Rated to a Minimum Breaking Strength of 10,000kg, the shackles also have a nylon protective sheath made to reduce wear at the rope's main grip points.
Rated to 10,000kg! Determined in a large-scale lab test, the Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) figure is determined by taking the measurement of the weakest sample when it first starts to tear, rip, or break. It's recommended that the MBS of any recovery rope used should be at least 2-3 times the gross weight of the vehicle that's being recovered.
To use it, simply put the untied shackle through the eye of your recovery rope, pass the loop end through/around the rated recovery point, then pass the knot through the soft shackle loop. It can also be doubled up to create an even stronger attachment point.
