Rugged Ridge 5/16in Rope Shackle and Grab Handle

Rugged Ridge is known for making accessories that help off-roaders get the most out of their vehicles. These soft rope shackles are a prime example, offering a modern alternative to traditional steel shackles for recovery situations. Constructed from HMPE rope, they boast a breaking strength of 30,000 pounds, which is considerably stronger than steel. Unlike nylon, this material repels water, resists abrasions, and has very low elasticity, making it a smart choice for off-road recovery where durability and reliability are key.

These shackles are designed to be pliable, even when wearing gloves, so you can easily manipulate them to attach to tow hooks or recovery points. They won't rust and won't open under load, but they can be opened easily once the load is removed. Beyond their recovery function, they also serve as convenient grab handles. You can store them around your roll bar for easy access, making it simpler to get in and out of your vehicle, even when you're not actively using them for recovery.
