The soft shackle replaces shackles and carabiners with pure Dyneema – a fraction of the weight, no metal parts to scrape against bark or dig into your backpack. Spliced from 6 mm Dyneema rope, with an abrasion sleeve and a retrieval cord.
Features
6 mm Dyneema rope (high-strength UHMWPE), hand-spliced with a diamond knot closure
Red abrasion sleeve over the whole loop – protects the Dyneema from wear against bark, rock or hardware
Orange retrieval cord at the knot – pull it to open the knot after loading, no fiddling needed
Open length approx. 20 cm
Our own tensile test, not just a manufacturer spec
We don't just take the supplier's word for it – every batch goes through our own quality control on an external tensile tester. This sample's result: 47.2 kN breaking load at 50% elongation at break, well above most comparable soft shackles on the market.
What it's for
Anywhere a shackle or carabiner sits today: connecting a round sling to webbing, at an anchor point, or in a pulley system. No cross-loading, no rattling, no rust – in exchange, you'll need to work the knot back open with the retrieval cord and some effort after a heavy load.
