Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: How does the FlatLink improve off-road recovery safety?
A: By eliminating the use of an open-ended winch hook this reduces the risk of accidental disconnects. The Closed-loop system provides a more secure and controlled recovery setup.
Q: What types of winch line is the FlatLink compatible with?A: The FlatLink works with steel and synthetic ropes up to 3/8" in diameter.
Q: How easy is it to install?A: Very easy! Simply uninstall your existing hook and attach the FlatLink to the winch line using the included shear pin and internal snap ring.
Q: Whats the difference between the FlatLink and the FlatLink E?A: The FlatLink E is a larger design with added enhancements. The standard FlatLink is more compact, perfect for general off-road use.
Throw out that old winch hook and join the 21st century--everybody's using the revolutionary Factor 55 Flatlink (blue) D-ring and thimble. As the first folding shackle mount designed for recovery winches, the Flatlink shackle mount is only 1.75 inches thick and is compatible with roller fairlead LP mounting brackets. The Factor 55 Flatlink does not need splicing and works with synthetic ropes or steel cables (under 3/8" in diameter). Manufactured in the U.S.A., Factor 55 Flatlink is made of the 6000 series billet aluminum that has been powder-coated and anodized for extra durability.
Additional features of the Factor 55 Flatlink include:
While old-style winch hooks tend to fray and cut recovery straps or let straps escape because of temporary slack cycles, the Factor 55 Flatlink will not allow loose strap issues due to screw pin shackles reinforced by reliable, screw pin attachment.

The Flatlink winch is an alternative to the ProLink. The FlatLink design will allow you to use a clip-on style license plate holder. These are constructed from 6061 billet aluminum, and uses a 5/8” titanium shear pin to keep the cable in place.
These can handle up to a 16,000lb load limit, and these are referred to the term, “Flatlink”, because the unit will fold flat against the fairlead when winching.
This anodized gray example would make for an excellent addition to your recovery system.

Replace the conventional winch hook with a safer and stronger D-ring shackle thimble from Factor 55. The FlatLink shackle mount is designed to accommodate the most common winches in the market. It eliminates the possibility of your winch cable or strap falling and causing damage/injury to a vehicle or person. It is the industry's first folding shackle mount for recovery joints with less than 1.75 inches in thickness. It is compatible with all roller fairlead license plate mounting brackets.
The FlatLink works well with steel cable or synthetic winch rope of up to 3/8" in diameter, and there is no splicing that is required hence easy installation. It features a solid 5/8" diameter grade 5 steel double shear pin and internal snap ring that retains the cable eye in the FlatLink. The silver FlatLink has EPDM Rubber Guard that protects the alloy Hawse fairleads while being securely attached to the FlatLink with four barbed tips. The FlatLink cinches neatly against all types of fairleads, whether Hawse or Roller, eliminating impact abrasion at the end of the synthetic winch rope.
