Gray00069 – Factor 55 Synthetic Gray Soft Shackle (Extreme Duty, 7/16", 10" Diameter)
Stronger Than Steel. Lighter Than Air. USA Made.
Let’s get real — when you’re off-road and stuck deep, your recovery gear better not flinch. The Factor 55 Extreme Duty Soft Shackle isn’t just a steel shackle replacement. It’s an upgrade in every sense.
Made in the USA from high-performance HMPE Plasma® rope, wrapped in a woven polyester abrasion jacket, and coated with Fiber Lock, this 7/16” soft shackle punches way above its weight class. It’s lab-tested, field-proven, and pulls 25–30% stronger than the average soft shackle on the market today.
This is not some generic off-brand copy. This is Factor 55 — engineered, tested, and built for recovery with zero compromises.

FAQ
Q: Can I use this with a steel bumper or tow point?
A: Yes — soft shackles are safe on steel and reduce scratching or wear on paint/powder coat.
Q: How does this compare to a traditional D-ring shackle?
A: This soft shackle is stronger, lighter, and safer. And it won’t clank around or trap dirt.
Q: Can I leave it on my truck full time?
A: You could — but for max lifespan, remove it when not in use to protect from sun and grit.
