Innovative FlatLink design enhances safety and efficiency in winching operations.
The Factor 55 Winch Cable Shackle Mount introduces a revolutionary FlatLink design that replaces traditional winch hooks with a more secure and safer shackle thimble and D-ring. This innovative folding shackle mount is the first of its kind in the industry, measuring less than 1-3/4 inches in thickness, making it compatible with all roller fairlead license plate mounting brackets. The FlatLink effectively prevents recovery straps from fraying or escaping during winching operations, thanks to its secure screw pin attachment that eliminates the risks associated with conventional winch hooks.
Constructed from lightweight, precision CNC machined 6000 series aluminum, the FlatLink is designed for both steel cables and synthetic winch ropes with diameters up to 3/8 inch. The integrated 5/8 inch diameter grade 5 steel double shear pin and internal snap ring ensure that the cable eye remains securely retained within the FlatLink. Installation is straightforward and can be completed in minutes, making it a practical choice for users seeking efficiency in recovery scenarios.
Additionally, the FlatLink features integrated EPDM rubber guards that protect alloy fairleads from damage, ensuring longevity and reliability during use. Its foldable design and compatibility with multiple 3/4 inch screw pin shackles and OEM tow hooks further enhance its versatility, making it an essential tool for any winching operation.
