In this video I show you the Factor 55 ProLink and Splicer. What they are, how they differ, and how to attach them to your winch line. I also cover Closed System Winching. Let me know if you have any questions.
The Factor 55 Splicer:
The world’s first splice on synthetic rope shackle mounting thimble with rope protection and integrated rubber pad.
The unique machined rope passage provides a tough outer barrier to protect against rope impact and abrasion as well as UV exposure protection. Compatible with synthetic ropes up to 1/2″ in diameter.
The Factor 55 ProLink:
Replace conventional winch hooks with the new safer, stronger, and smarter Factor 55 ProLink shackle mount.
Factor 55 introduces the new ProLink shackle mount for winch cables and synthetic ropes. Engineered and machined in the USA from lightweight billet 6061 aluminum, the ProLink provides a safe means to easily attach a standard 3/4″ screw pin shackle to existing winch cable and rope eyes The cable or rope eye is captured into the body of the ProLink by a removable oversized 5/8″ double shear pin. The front of the ProLink provides the precision shackle mounting hole and massive 1.2″ thick mounting tab. The ProLink is compatible with both Hawse and Roller fairleads and snugs neatly against both versions.
The advantages of winching with a screw pin shackle over a conventional winch hook are many:
Screw pin shackles are up to 5X stronger than conventional winch hooks
Conventional hooks are too small to safely fit both ends of a recovery strap
Recover straps cannot slip out of a shackle like they can with hooks
Hook safety latches are not rated for loads and can tear recovery straps
Conventional hook surfaces add higher stresses to recovery strap fibers, resulting in decreased strap ratings
Shackles can be quickly removed and stowed away until needed for winching.
Hooks do not cinch neatly against fairleads and are prone to rattling and loosening
Conventional winch hooks are designed for chains - not commonly used recovery straps
Engineered, Tested, and Made in USA - Patent Pending
Stress analyzed using COSMOS FEA and destructively tested for confirmation
Billet construction - precision machined from 6061-T6 Kaiser Aluminum round bar
16,000 pound max load rating
Fits all steel cables and synthetic ropes up to 3/8″ in diameter
Fits eyes equipped with standard or tube thimbles to 3/8 inch diameters
1.2 inch shackle tab thickness virtually eliminates “shackle rattle”
5/8 inch diameter 6Al-4V titanium double shear pin
Optional EPDM “Rubber Guard” protects alloy Hawse fairleads - rubber barb attachment
Can be installed and removed in minutes - simple snap ring removal
Cinches neatly against all types of fairleads - Hawse or Roller
Beautifully anodized and zinc plated in the USA

Side note: when screwing the pin back into a shackle, it’s a good (great) practice to screw it all the way in, and then back it off about 1/4-1/2 turn. You’d be amazed how quickly shackles seize at the most in opportune times! Source: Former Chief Engineer on a Coast Guard buoy tender. And as a side note, love your videos, brother!

Never had a hook fail.

I just came across your video. I purchased a factor 55 a couple of years ago. I'm always about safety and using the best products either for personnel use or work. I also purchased the "shorty" which is a figure eight link up between the factor 55 and the load D-ring. Closed loop is definitely the way to go. As a retired safety officer I've always been Pro-active not Re-active. Why would anyone want to continue using a hook that may/can fail when the factor 55 will not!

When I first saw the Prolink I thought it was cool but at well over $100 that interest went away quickly. Personally I just use the "D" ring with the hook. Looking up the Splicer Prolink I see the price is about $75, still pricey but getting down in the range of worth it to me, unfortunately I've not jumped on the synthetic bandwagon.

Was thinking the same thing. The Splicer seems like a good idea, as it’s essentially an over built thimble and thimble crushing is a failure point on synthetic rope, but the Pro link seems redundant to me, I see no advantage over just using a ring shackle through the rope thimble. Is it just providing protection to the rope working end during daily driving?

The best and safest way to connect your winch line to a tree saver or other anchor is to simply pass a SOFT shackle through the thimble on the end of your winch line/rope(not the hook, the actual thimble the cable/rope is wrapped around) and then through both ends of the strap.

@irish-simon 7 жыл бұрын

looks lovely but not convinced mine like your jeep has a problem using the fist one if you are using a snatch block back to your jeep you will need to use a second shackle to attach to the recovery points on the bumper as it wont fit through the and I would be adding one more weak point the second one is lovely but splicing steel wire rope is not easy

@PersonaN007Grata 5 жыл бұрын

Couldn't you just put a shackle directly on the eyelet of a steel cable without the use of a open design clevis hook? Is it because the uneven load on the shackle pin can cause it to bend? Generally, the pins are even thicker diameter than the shackle itself.

@MikeBaxterABC 5 жыл бұрын

Maybe I'm old fashioned? ... But I REALLY MUCH prefer a wire rope cable, Flemish Eye Splice and one or two U-Bolts (not for over head lifting!) but for winching and recovery? .. works great and cheap as dirt, NEVER had one fail.

Ive seen an amputation because of wire rope, and yes, synthetic can do some damage but nowhere close to wire rope. Free flying shackles and hooks can do some serious damage as well. Ive seen guys carry 5kg plate weights that they attach to shackles and hooks to stop them from flying off. I carry a few 1t slings of different lenght that i loosely anchor shackles and hooks with, saves a bit of weight compared to plate weights. As long as youre safe around the equipment youre using, know what youre doing and dont get complacent because youve done it before, there shouldnt be an issue

If your stuck on a Lift or a Recovery and the only choice is to side load a (proper screw in) shackle there's nothing wrong with that at all (check with your shackle manufactures web site) as long as you realize that the LOAD capacity is reduced by 50% for a 90 Degree side load or 30% reduction for a 45 Degree side load. I've lifted equipment and parts that the ONLY method available (as designed by the manufacturer) is to lift them with side loaded shackles ... it's a common procedure in industry.

I don't think that they are a waste of money because if something goes wrong with the hook being put in an odd position by someone inexperienced or that is simply not close enough to see something wrong like in a long desert pull strange things can happen. These eliminate the already minuscule chance of a hook going flying.

Most thimbles are designed to collapse under hard pulls. When this happens trying to run a standard 3/4 shackle pin through the end of your winch line is impossible. Additionally, The integrated EPDM rubber boot allows the ProLink or Splicer to be snugged tightly to your Fairlead preventing rattles and protecting your Fairlead from a metal to metal connection. Not sure what you would do with just the eye....
