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. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTherefore, soft shackles should be seen as a consumable item in offroad recovery.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVery high strength-to-weight ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo need to worry about rust or corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight and flexible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for off-roading, these soft shackles float on water and does not submerge easily in mud.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo tools required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains high strength around tight-radius bends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow elongation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimal recoil at break\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbrasion-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobust tolerance for flexural fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExceptionally resistant to ultraviolet and chemical exposure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4x4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle Towing \u0026amp; Recovery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe breaking strength listed is calculated by using a formula used for soft shackles which is based on the single Dyneema rope's breaking strength, which once doubled-up, has almost double the strength, but is limited by the strength of the rope around the knot. This ratio is usually around 1.75x the single rope strength. We work on a 1.5x ratio.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*\u003cem\u003eSoft shackle colors may vary from batch to batch\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cem\u003eLegal Disclaimer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-center para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eIt 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-center para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eRockspider4x4 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RS Automotive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47200662519982,"sku":null,"price":747.5,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/9620\/4462\/files\/18-TonSoftShackle.png?v=1763666074","url":"https:\/\/www.rockspider4x4.co.za\/products\/12mm-26-ton-soft-shackle","provider":"RS 4X4 \u0026 Automotive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
