If you use shackles or snap hooks on your boat, ROBSHIP Soft Shackles will make your life easier and simpler.
Lots of features that can’t be found in metal shackles!
- About the same price as stainless steel shackles but with more advantages
-
Lightweight: 4-6 times lighter than equivalent stainless steel shackles (they float!)
- Soft & safer than metal shackles: no damage to deck-side, other equipment, or people
- Can be threaded through narrow gaps, where metal shackles can’t go through
- Easy to use, very simple to open & close (no tools like shackle opener required)
- No fiddling with bits that can fall out
- Extremely strong: UV stabilized & abrasion resistant UHMWPE base rope used
From choosing materials to manufacturing
We only use tested UHMWPE ropes made in house on our own machines. Only our experienced professional team is involved in the production of soft shackles.
The line sizes are abundant so that each line size can be used appropriately for its intended purpose. Machine stretching is applied during the manufacturing process to make the soft shackles compact and strong.
Soft shackles can be made by hand relatively easily, but soft shackles produced through this development and manufacturing process are uniquely different from handmade products.
The coloring of the raw material is resistant to fading, and the PU coating on the material rope prevents being held up and feathering.

F: Flattened Rope Thickness
- The thickness of material rope while being loaded. Flattened soft shackles may be able to go through the narrow slit such as the webbing slot.
L: Internal Flat Length
- The internal length of the loop while being tensioned from the both ends. Our product size is shown in this value, NOT diameter.
Recommended Max. Working Load
- We recommend to use our soft shackles within 20% to 50% of the breaking strength. The actual max. working load differs depending on the usage.
