Product Overview Saber Ezy-Glide Recovery Ring + Twin 18K Sheath Soft Shackles Kit

The Ezy-Glide Recovery Ring offers a unique solution to recovery needs where weight and size are critical factors. It is designed to be used exclusively with synthetic winch ropes and soft shackles, which minimises frictional load and extends rope life by preventing tight bends that reduce strength. This ring is ideal for synthetic ropes up to 12mm diameter, providing a recommended internal channel diameter that complies with manufacturer guidance to reduce wear and fibre fatigue.

Its compact and lightweight design is almost 25% of the weight of similar rated snatch blocks, making it easier to carry and use in off-road recovery kits. The free form central core further reduces friction when paired with soft shackles, enhancing system efficiency and reliability during recovery operations.

Technology & Materials

The ring is crafted from T6 billet aluminium, ensuring a balance of strength and lightweight durability. The internal channel is engineered to provide an 8:1 ratio relative to rope diameter, supporting synthetic winch ropes and reducing fibre flattening and damage in use. The free form central core design offers improved support for soft shackles, reducing frictional losses within the recovery system.

Installation & Compatibility

The Ezy-Glide Recovery Ring must be used only with synthetic winch ropes and soft shackles such as the Bound Soft Shackle or Sheath Soft Shackle, which are tested for optimal performance and friction reduction. This ring is a bolt-in accessory designed for ease of integration into recovery kits. It is suitable for users seeking a balance between portability and heavy-duty capability.

It is not intended for use with wire ropes or conventional shackles and should be paired accordingly to ensure maximum rope life and system function.
