Ronstan XXL Soft Shackle 14mm

Description

Ronstan Soft Shackle DSH-14GRY is an XXL 14mm x 100mm UHMWPE soft link with a Robline puller line. It provides a low-profile, lightweight connection for your rigging and serves as an alternative to metal shackles where corrosion and weight are concerns.

Problem and solution: Metal shackles can corrode, rattle, and add weight; this soft shackle uses high-modulus SK98 Dyneema to deliver secure load-bearing performance while remaining lightweight and easier on deck hardware. The small-diameter puller line lets you release the shackle after it has been loaded.

• 14mm x 100mm XXL size fits large eyes and spliced terminations
• SK98 Dyneema UHMWPE fiber for high strength-to-weight ratio
• XG coating for improved UV stability and abrasion resistance
• Robline small-diameter puller line for controlled release under load
• Lightweight non-corroding alternative to traditional metal shackles

Use case and comparison: Install as a clew, sheet, or halyard connector or anywhere a low-swing, soft link is preferred. Unlike steel shackles this soft link reduces noise and corrosion risk; compared to generic rope loops it uses marine-grade SK98 fiber and an XG finish for more predictable wear characteristics.

Trust signals: Manufactured by Ronstan (MPN DSH-14GRY), constructed from SK98 Dyneema UHMWPE and finished with an XG abrasion/UV coating. For specifications or test data request Ronstan technical sheets or contact us for load guidance to match your application.

Choose this shackle when you need a serviceable, lightweight connection that maintains predictable performance in marine environments.
