Extreme Duty Soft Shackle 7/8 Inch X 24 Inch Factor 55

The Factor 55 Extreme Duty Soft Shackle is a 7/8-inch diameter, 24-inch pull-to-pull soft shackle built for serious recovery rigging. It carries a minimum breaking strength of 185,000 lbs and a working load limit of 37,000 lbs — numbers that are lab- and field-verified, not just rated on paper.

Construction starts with HMPE Plasma rope, then adds a woven polyester jacket whipped and coated with Fiber Lock for abrasion and UV resistance. The jacket runs close to the knot, protecting the most vulnerable section of the shackle. That combination is why this shackle delivers 25–30% more verified breaking strength compared to standard soft shackles at the same size and weight.

We recommend this as a direct lightweight replacement for common steel screw pin shackles — it saves weight without sacrificing load capacity. It also pairs with Factor 55's 2-inch Extreme Duty Kinetic Energy Rope for closed-system winching setups where every link in the rigging needs to hold. Engineered, tested, and manufactured in the USA. Color: Red.
