Soft Connect Shackle 14T - ARB

The ARB Soft Connect Shackle is a lightweight, high-strength recovery accessory designed to provide a safer and more versatile alternative to traditional steel shackles. With an impressive 14.5-ton (32,000lb) breaking strength, this premium soft shackle is suitable for vehicles weighing up to 3.5 tonnes (7,700lb), making it an essential addition to any off-road recovery kit.

Whether you’re recovering a 4WD, SUV, ute, or touring vehicle, the ARB Soft Connect Shackle delivers reliable performance in demanding conditions. As a result, you can complete recovery operations with greater confidence and improved safety.

Because ARB manufactures this soft shackle from CE-certified UHMWPE synthetic rope, it offers exceptional strength while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. Furthermore, its flexible construction allows quick attachment to most rated recovery points.

High-Strength Recovery Performance

The ARB Soft Connect Shackle features an impressive 32,000lb (14.5-ton) breaking strength, providing dependable performance during demanding recovery situations. In addition, it is suitable for vehicles weighing up to 3.5 tonnes, making it ideal for most recreational 4WD recovery applications.

Because soft shackles distribute loads efficiently, they help create safer recovery setups. Therefore, they have become a popular choice among off-road enthusiasts and professional recovery operators.

Safer Than Traditional Steel Shackles

Unlike conventional steel shackles, the ARB Soft Connect Shackle reduces the risk of dangerous recoil if recovery equipment fails when used correctly. Moreover, its lightweight construction makes handling and storage easier.

As a result, recovery operations become safer for both drivers and bystanders. Furthermore, the flexible design helps minimise the risk of damage to recovery points and vehicle components.

Premium UHMWPE Synthetic Rope

The ARB Soft Connect Shackle uses 12mm, 12-strand UHMWPE synthetic rope that delivers outstanding strength while remaining extremely lightweight. In addition, ARB protects the rope with a high-tensile braided shield and a durable Hypalon sleeve to resist cuts, abrasions, and everyday wear.

Because the rope resists UV exposure and water, it performs reliably in harsh outdoor environments. Consequently, it remains dependable during repeated recovery operations.

Floats on Water

Unlike steel recovery shackles, the ARB Soft Connect Shackle floats on water. Moreover, its lightweight construction makes it easy to retrieve during river crossings, beach recoveries, or marine applications.

Because you can recover it quickly if dropped, this feature adds convenience while reducing the chance of losing valuable recovery equipment.

Flexible and Easy to Use

The ARB Soft Connect Shackle easily attaches to most rated recovery points without requiring additional tools. In addition, its flexible construction simplifies setup in confined spaces where steel shackles may be difficult to install.

As a result, recoveries become quicker and more efficient. Furthermore, the lightweight design reduces carrying weight inside your recovery kit.
