Description

Staying safe is paramount in recovery situations, and having properly rated gear is key. The ARB Soft Connect Shackle has been updated with UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecule Weight Polyethylene) high tensile, CE certified, synthetic rope. UHMWPE rope is used in many of the synthetic rope applications on winches and purpose-built tow straps. Rated at 14.5T breaking strength, the ARB Soft Connect Shackle is engineered to float in water, be resistant to short-term UV radiation, and provide superior strength. Updating the protection to the UHMWPE rope in the ARB soft shackle, the UHMWPE synthetic rope is encased in a high tensile, braided shield. The braided shield improves abrasion resistance to protect the UHMWPE synthetic rope and further protect against cuts and abrasions when in use. The larger soft shackle connection is formed by passing the large ball end knot through the open loop, the loop then tightens around the knot when used and pulls securely against the large formed knot during recovery. The knot cannot let go and loop tightens securely around the knot forming the connection. The ARB Soft Connect Shackle is suitable for vehicles up to 3.5T GVM and has a breaking strain of 14.5T. The ARB Soft Connect Shackle acts as a fuse in a recovery situation, breaking generally before any rated metal components that it is attached to should break. This removes flying metal projectiles in recovery situations and provides a safer recovery for persons involved in the recovery and bystanders. The Soft Connect Shackle also provides fl exibility for attaching your strap to a rated recovery point. Always follow correct recovery procedures and put safety for you and everyone else first before attempting any recovery. Protecting and storing your ARB Soft Connect Shackle when not in use is done with the included drawstring carry bag. The bag incorporates a mesh and nylon case to allow for sufficient drying as well as protecting and providing easy storage in your recovery kit.

    Haven't used it yet, so can't speak to that. Appears to be very well made, on a par with other ARB products.

    So, I didn't get the version shown in the product description but that's fine. As long as it does the job when it needs to.I've attached a photo of the version I received and I set it up and it looks like it'll hold well. Materials are fine and the ball looks solid. Well, it should be based on the way these are supposed to be made.When the time comes, we shall see.

    When I received this I thought it looks smaller around than I thought, like it won't go around stuff that is very big. The back braiding seems loose. Just doesn't look like the quality that I would think ARB would produce, then I went back to review this and saw the advertised picture and what I got doesn't look anything like the picture. I may have been sent an old design before it was made stronger, or maybe it's a chinese knock off, not sure. Hopefully yours looks better than what I recieved.
