1/2" NexGen PRO Gator-Jaw® Synthetic Soft Shackle
The NexGen PRO Gator-Jaw® synthetic soft shackle is the lightest and strongest 1/2" diameter synthetic soft shackle ever made. Weighing only 12 ounces it has an average breaking strength (ABS) of 75,000 lbs. and a minimum breaking strength (MBS) of 70,000 lbs.
The unique design has eliminated all rope-weakening-splices found in other cheap soft shackles. The locking loop incorporates a flexible tough epoxy rubber slider that slips over a patented designed knot making a strong closed connector. The new slider is made from tough rubber epoxy giving it the strength and stretch to hold up to the wear and tear of off-road recovery.
All Gator-Jaw synthetic soft shackles are made from HMPE synthetic fibers and contain no metal, so they won’t rust and are so light they float.
