Ronstan Soft Shackle XS 2.5mm

Ronstan Soft Shackle Size XS 2.5mm x 50mm with Robline puller line is a lightweight UHMWPE soft link made from SK98 Dyneema. Its primary benefit is providing a low-weight alternative to metal shackles that reduces corrosion and weight aloft for your boat.

Problem: metal shackles add weight, can corrode, and may damage fittings. Solution: this soft shackle uses high-strength SK98 Dyneema fiber with an XG coating to resist UV and abrasion while the small-diameter Robline puller line lets you release the shackle after it has been loaded.

• Size XS 2.5mm x 50mm fits small rigging and deck hardware
• SK98 Dyneema UHMWPE fiber for high strength to weight ratio
• XG coating improves UV stability and abrasion resistance

Use case: install this soft shackle where you want to minimize weight aloft, reduce corrosion risk, or avoid metal-to-metal contact. Unlike steel shackles, the soft link cushions shocks and eliminates rust; compared to generic rope loops it uses certified SK98 fiber and a protective XG finish for durability.
