Product Overview

The Saber Alloy Winch Shackle Short replaces the standard winch hook to securely hold the winch rope tightly against the fairlead, protecting it during recovery operations. Its patented channel design offers optimal support for soft shackles and eliminates the risk of damage caused by sharper edges found on competing products.

Designed and manufactured entirely in Australia, this shackle combines strength, durability, and lightweight construction for safer and smarter recovery solutions. Its compact size allows easier installation and reduces bulk at the front of the vehicle, while the rubber pads help maintain the condition of aluminium fairleads during use.

Technology & Materials

Manufactured from aircraft-grade 7075 aluminium, the shackle offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. The CERAKOTE ceramic coating applied locally in Australia provides a hardwearing surface with superior UV stability compared to other finishes. Stainless steel hardware secures the winch rope eye firmly, ensuring reliability under heavy loads. Rubber engagement pads protect fairlead surfaces while maintaining secure contact during winching.

Installation & Compatibility

The Alloy Winch Shackle Short installs quickly with a 16mm stainless steel pin and an internal circlip. It requires no specialised tools and fits directly as a winch hook replacement. This product is intended for use exclusively with soft shackles, and the compact design utilises the patented channel to prevent damage to the rope or fairlead.

Its lightweight design is suited to users seeking a durable yet compact shackle alternative for general and heavy-duty recovery applications.
