🧾 Overview
The Factor 55 Splicer Synthetic Rope Shackle Mount is the world’s first splice-on winch rope thimble designed to replace conventional winch hooks while protecting synthetic rope from impact, abrasion, and UV exposure. Built for Closed System Winching, the Splicer delivers a safer, cleaner, and more durable recovery connection for serious off-road and recovery use.
Precision CNC machined from 6000-series military-grade aluminum, the Splicer features a unique internal rope path that shields synthetic rope fibers from damage while maintaining smooth load transfer. An integrated EPDM rubber pad protects alloy fairleads and cushions line stowage when cinched. Designed exclusively for synthetic winch rope applications, the Splicer connects securely to common screw-pin shackles without metal-to-rope contact.
Important: This is a splice-on product and requires proper synthetic rope splicing knowledge prior to installation.
