Dyneema® Soft Shackles
Dyneema® Soft Shackles
Soft shackles spliced from Robline Ocean 3000, a pre-stretched, coated Dyneema® line, to do the job of a metal shackle at a fraction of the weight. With no hard edges they won't dent the mast, chip gel coat or chafe sails and lines, and there is nothing to rust, rattle or drop over the side. To fit, open the loop, pass the shackle through the fitting, slip the loop back over the stopper knot and pull it snug. Opens by hand in seconds, even when wet. Made in 2mm, 3mm and 4mm line, each in a choice of loop sizes.
