ARB Rates at 32,000 Lbs breaking strength. Well made, good quality. Easily Fits the eye of recovery hitches such as Yankum Ropes Recovery Point and Factor55 Hitchlink.

Wish ARB would stick to Australian made products for what they charge. They are the same style soft shackle as pictured, others must have gotten the previous model shackle ## Features - The ARB Soft Connect Shackle is suitable for vehicles up to 3.5T GVM and has a breaking strain of 14.5T. The ARB Soft Connect Shackle acts as a fuse in a recovery situation, breaking generally before any rated metal components that it is attached to should break. - The Soft Connect Shackle also provides flexibility for attaching your strap to a rated recovery point. Always follow correct recovery procedures and put safety for you and everyone else first before attempting any recovery. Protecting and storing your ARB Soft Connect Shackle when not in use is done with the included drawstring carry bag. - Staying safe is paramount in recovery situations, and having properly rated gear is key.
