🧾 Overview
The Factor 55 ProLink Bridle Winch Shackle Mount is the original ProLink shackle mount trusted by first responders and towing professionals worldwide. Designed to replace conventional winch hooks, the ProLink Bridle provides a stronger, safer, and more versatile shackle-based recovery connection for advanced winching scenarios.
This model features three dedicated shackle mounting holes, allowing operators to run fixed-length bridle links on the outer holes for bridle towing, or use the center hole for a traditional single-shackle recovery point. The design prevents dangerous shackle side loading by allowing proper pivoting at the pin interface, improving safety during angled or multi-line recoveries.
Machined in the USA from lightweight 6061 billet aluminum, the ProLink Bridle requires no rope splicing and is compatible with steel cable or synthetic rope up to 3/8" diameter, as well as hawse and roller fairleads. An aerospace-grade titanium double-shear pin securely captures the rope eye, while integrated EPDM rubber guards protect fairleads, cushion stowage, and eliminate rattling. The ProLink Bridle is also compatible with Closed System Winching, using only closed-link hardware for added recovery security.
