Bushmen Soft Shackle - Ultralight Hammock Connector (4g)

The Bushmen Soft Shackle is a 4g textile connector that replaces metal karabiners and shackles in your hammock setup. It saves weight and bulk when attaching a hammock to its suspension.

Made from cord rather than metal, the Soft Shackle weighs just 4g yet carries a 10kN rating from the manufacturer. It is flexible and compact, so it packs away easily and won't clank or scratch your kit. Use it to connect hammocks to suspension systems and for other camp gear connections on bushcraft, hiking and camping trips.
