Product Overview

The Wedge provides optimal support for soft shackles by eliminating sharp edges and tight bend radii that can damage ropes. Its channel design protects the rope through the thimble from impact or wear, making recovery tasks safer and more efficient. This product combines high strength with low weight, making it suitable for off-road and recovery applications where lightweight and reliable gear is essential.

The application of the Cerakote™ ceramic coating ensures excellent UV resistance and a hardwearing surface, enabling the Wedge to withstand harsh environmental conditions. The use of Rubber Fairlead Engagement Pads further protects components from abrasion, extending the life of the system.

Technology & Materials

Manufactured from aircraft grade 7075 aluminium for optimal strength without excess weight, the Wedge is finished with an Australian-applied Cerakote™ ceramic coating. This coating provides durable, hardwearing protection with strong UV stability to withstand demanding conditions encountered during off-road use. Integrated Rope Protection (IRP) safeguards the rope by preventing contact damage within the thimble area, ensuring consistent performance and longevity.

Installation & Compatibility

The Wedge is designed to be used exclusively with soft shackles and engages securely with fairleads using Rubber Fairlead Engagement Pads. It offers a simple, ergonomic fit without the need for modification. This product functions as a replacement for traditional winch hooks specifically in soft shackle recovery setups.

Recommended for users seeking the strongest soft shackle alternative for off-road recovery applications.
