Flex Synthetic Soft Shackles
|
These soft shackles are the perfect replacement for traditional metal shackles. They don't require any tools and are easy to open and close. They are lightweight, and their soft properties will not damage paint. These shackles will not corrode or
|
rust and will outlast any metal shackles. These soft shackles have many different applications on the rigging and recovery scene. Any place you can use a metal shackle you will be able to use this soft shackle just as efficiently.
|
Synthetic Rope.
The use of synthetic plasma rope allows the sling to be lightweight, flexible and extremely strong. (See chart below.) This synthetic plasma rope will float and is abrasion resistant.
|
Fixed Loop.
The opening on the braided loop is big enough to slip the knot through and then secures the connection under tension.
