"FACTOR 55" PROLINK WINCH SHACKLE MOUNT, GRAY

Replace traditional winch hooks with the new, safer, stronger and smarter "Factor 55" ProLink shackle mount. Factor 55 introduces the new ProLink shackle mount for winch rope and synthetic rope. Made in the USA from lightweight 6061 aluminum, the ProLink provides a secure way to attach a standard 3/4 bolt shackle to existing winch cables and rope eyes. The cable or rope eye is secured into the body of the ProLink by a removable, oversized 5/8 double shear pin. On the front of the ProLink is the precision shackle mounting hole and the massive 1.2 thick mounting tab. The ProLink is compatible with both aluminum and roller fairleads and attaches easily to either version.

Product specifications:

• Screw bolt shackles are up to 5 times stronger than conventional winch hooks
• Conventional hooks are too small to securely attach both ends of a recovery strap
• Straps cannot slip out of a shackle like hooks can.
• Hook safety fasteners are not designed for loads and can damage recovery straps
• Conventional hook surfaces place greater stress on the belt's fibers, resulting in a shorter service life
• The shackles can be quickly removed and stowed until needed for winching.
• The hooks can be pulled cleanly into the rope window and can rattle or even come loose
• Conventional winch hooks are designed for chains - not for the commonly used recovery straps
