Recopilación: Harken Soft Attachments

Soft attachments replace heavy stainless steel shackles on racing and cruising boats. Weight savings on large offshore boats can be as much as 91 kg (200 lb). Strong and lightweight, soft attachments are constructed using multiple coils of tough Dyneema® with Spectra® cover—one of the most durable materials made. An annealing process ensures loads are equal on all coils. Colored tracers on the cover specify an attachments strength by indicating the number of Dyneema coils. When fitting hardware, choose the soft attachment that matches the attachment method shown in the chart. Custom length soft attachments are also available. Use T2 Loops in Carbo T2 blocks. These strong, lightweight soft attachments are woven of Dyneema fibers, and are load-set and locked-stitched to prevent stretch after installation. Dyneema is a registered trademark of DSM Dyneema.
