Designed for fast access 4x4 off road vehicle recovery, this split shackle provides a strong connection point when vehicles are trapped in mud, sand, snow or rocky terrain. Constructed from heat treated drop forged carbon steel with heavy duty alloy securing pin, the split recovery shackle absorbs dynamic pulling forces during vehicle extraction. Its split opening design allows rapid installation and removal without completely taking out the pin, greatly saving time during emergency rescue. Abrasion resistant and anti corrosion surface treatment guarantees long term dependability under harsh outdoor conditions. Perfect for SUVs, trucks, 4x4 vehicles and overlanding rigs, this off road tow shackle is essential recovery hardware for emergency extraction and trail rescue. Keep this practical split shackle inside your off road recovery kit for unexpected stuck vehicle situations.

Engineered for full size 4×4 vehicle recovery, this split shackle can withstand heavy vehicle weight and sudden dynamic shock loads during snatch pulls. Working load limit and minimum breaking strength can be customized according to different size requirements. Verified load test reports and performance certificates can be provided upon request.
The split shackle adopts one piece drop forged 45# carbon steel body paired with 40Cr alloy steel securing pin. Both components go through quenching and tempering heat treatment to reach excellent toughness and tensile strength. Premium forging technology effectively lowers the risk of bending, stretching or fracture under heavy dynamic pulling during off road recovery.
2. Time Saving Split Opening Quick Connect Design
The unique split opening structure allows you to attach or detach recovery straps, winch cables and recovery loops without fully unscrewing and removing the pin. This tool free fast access design speeds up connection work on site. The wide inner space supports multi angle pulling and fits thick snatch strap loops easily, making this split shackle highly convenient for emergency trail recovery.
3. Multi Option Corrosion Resistant Surface Finishing
Available finishes include powder coating, electro galvanizing and hot dip galvanized treatment. Anti rust protective coating protects the shackle body from mud, rain, salt spray and trail debris, extending service life for long term outdoor off road use. Multiple solid color options are available for fleet wide equipment matching and quick visual identification.
4. All Terrain Off Road Recovery Compatibility
Built to handle demanding off road recovery environments, the split shackle works reliably in mud, sand, snow, gravel and rocky trails. It can be fitted onto SUVs, full size pickup trucks, heavy duty 4×4 vehicles and overlanding trucks as convenient connection hardware for complete off road recovery kits.
5. Tested Performance You Can Verify
To ensure product transparency for bulk buyers, we can provide test records covering working load limit, breaking strength, metal hardness and corrosion resistance. All performance data comes from real lab testing so customers can evaluate the split shackle based on factual results instead of unsubstantiated marketing claims.
Use a split shackle for vehicle recovery on beaches, desert dunes and other loose sandy terrain. Its convenient split opening enables fast connection while its forged strength delivers stable pulling performance when off road vehicles become stuck in deep sand.
Mud Rescue
A split shackle provides a fast acting recovery solution for vehicles trapped in deep mud, muddy ruts and bogs. The quick access structure allows rapid coupling to heavy duty recovery points and kinetic snatch straps.
Snow & Ice Recovery
The split shackle is suitable for extracting vehicles stuck in deep snow and icy trails. Its high strength forged construction withstands strong pulling force when road traction is severely limited.
Rocky Trail Recovery
For vehicles that become high centered or wedged on uneven rocky trails, a split shackle connects winch lines or snatch straps for safe, controlled vehicle extraction.
Hill and Incline Recovery
The split shackle provides a secure connection when recovering vehicles on steep slopes and inclines. Its solid forged body helps absorb sudden dynamic shock loads generated during uphill recovery pulls.
Convoy & Group Trail Support
For off road groups, overlanding convoys and work truck fleets, split shackles serve as time saving recovery hardware to assist stuck vehicles across all trail conditions. They are ideal fast access gear for group trail support.

The split shackle body is made of drop forged 45# carbon steel, and the securing pin adopts high strength 40Cr alloy steel with quenched & tempered heat treatment for off road vehicle recovery applications. The specific construction and performance should be evaluated according to the product specifications and test data.
2. What vehicles can the split shackle be used for?
The split shackle is designed for off road recovery applications involving SUVs, trucks, 4×4 vehicles, and overlanding vehicles. The appropriate shackle size should always be selected according to vehicle weight, recovery equipment, and tested working load limit.
3. What colors and surface finishes are available for the split shackle?
Standard color options include gray, black, red, orange, blue, and green. Available surface treatments include powder coating, electro galvanizing and hot dip galvanizing. Custom colors can be discussed for specific orders.
4. Is the split shackle suitable for mud, sand, snow, and rocky trails?
Yes. The split shackle can be used for a wide range of off road recovery conditions, including mud, sand, snow, gravel, and rocky trails, when used with compatible recovery equipment and kept within the specified working load limits.
5. What is the main advantage of a split shackle compared to a standard bow shackle?
While a regular bow shackle requires you to fully remove the screw pin for strap installation, the split shackle’s notch style opening lets you loop on recovery gear without completely pulling the pin out. This greatly speeds up connections during urgent off road recovery operations.
6. Does the split shackle require special maintenance after off road use?
Yes. After heavy duty muddy, sandy or salt water environment use, clean shackle body and securing pin, remove grit and debris from threads, apply anti rust lubricant for thread protection. Inspect for deformation, crack or thread damage before every recovery use.
7. Can the split shackle be customized?
Yes. Custom colors, laser engraved logos, packaging, and other product requirements can be discussed according to order quantity and production feasibility. Custom specifications should be confirmed with the supplier before production.
