Overland Vehicle Systems Soft Shackle

All OVS soft shackles feature Dyneema which is a low-friction fiber, so braided synthetic line will run easily through soft shackles, meaning you can often get away without using a traditional snatch block for applications where standard recovery isnt enough. Dyneema rope is so strong that an equivalent wire rope would be three times as thick, and a top-quality stainless steel shackle with a 3/4in pin would have less than half the breaking strength. Our soft shackle can handle just about every function performed by a metal shackle, in many cases better. Soft shackles articulate better, dont rattle around when not under load, or beat up bumpers, easier to undo and dont have pins that fall out in the middle of a trail.
