Vlieroquicklink shackles are light and flexible, can be opened and closed quickly without the need for additional equipment and are self-locking under load. This ensures that handling is substantially enhanced while risk of injury is reduced. Our textile shackles are made of HMPE which won’t sink if they should ever fall in the water.
In terms of strength, reliability and service life, they are comparable to conventional metal shackles in every respect – while simultaneously boasting a signifi cant lower price. In fact, we can’t think any advantage that a steel counterpart of our Vlieroquick link could possibly have!

- This is a soft shackle ready to use
2. To use it, open it either by pulling the Inner braid of the outer braid, or as is the case with this one, pull the feeder line while holding the body in the other hand. Now it is open.
3. Put it a round whatever you want to attach and feed the knot through the eye.
4. Close up the shackle by milking the outher braid from the knot toward the eye. That will close the eye.
