Short Product Summary
The Ironman 4x4 Bow Shackle & Protective Cover is a 4,700kg-rated U-shaped shackle for vehicle recovery. It comes with a protective cover to keep it clean and ready to use when it's not connected.
Why This Product
When there's no soft shackle to hand, a solid, correctly rated bow shackle is what connects your recovery gear to a rated point. Its U-shaped body takes load from more than one direction, so it stays a dependable backup for the times a soft shackle isn't available.
Key Features
- 4,700kg rating – always stay within this rating on a recovery
- U-shaped design – takes on loads from multiple directions during a recovery
- Protective cover included – keeps the shackle clean and protected when it's not connected
- Backup for when a soft shackle isn't on hand – gives you another tested way to connect your recovery gear
Ideal For
- 4x4 owners building a recovery kit who want a rated bow shackle as a backup to a soft shackle
- Anyone recovering from rated points who wants a shackle that can take load from more than one direction
- Owners who want their gear protected in storage since the cover keeps the shackle clean between trips
