Winch hooks can cut and fray recovery straps and often allow strap ends to escape during typical loose\/tight cycles of a winching recovery. Screw pin shackles do not allow strap loops to escape due to the secure screw pin attachment. The FlatLink XTV does not require splicing and is compatible with steel cables or synthetic ropes up to 5\/16 inches. The cable eye is retained in the FlatLink XTV by a 7\/16 inch diameter titanium double shear pin and internal snap ring. It is easily installed in minutes. The EPDM Rubber Guards protects alloy fairleads and is securely attached to the FlatLink XTV with 4 barbed tips. The FlatLink XTV stows neatly against either roller or Hawse type fairleads and is designed to be used with common standard ½ – 5\/8 inch shackles. MADE IN THE USA, the FlatLink XTV is constructed of 6000 series billet aluminum and 6Al-4V titanium and is anodized\/powder coated in 5 different colors. The FlatLink XTV has a max load rating of 8000 pounds and an ultimate failure of 28,000+ pounds.\n\u003cp\u003eThe FACTOR 55 FlatLink XTV Winch Shackle provides a safer, stronger alternative to a conventional winch hook by using a shackle and D-ring connection.
