Safer and Stronger Alternative Eliminate the conventional winch hook and replace it with a safer and stronger FlatLink shackle thimble and D-Ring. Conventional winch hooks have a tendency of cutting and fraying recovery straps, and often allow straps ends to escape during momentary slack cycles of a typical recovery. To prevent this from happening, the FlatLink does not require any splicing and will work with steel cables and synthetic ropes up to 3/8" in diameter. The FlatLink Orange Shackle Mount is also the industry's first folding shackle mount for recovery winches, and with less than 1.75" of thickness, this FlatLink will work with all roller fairlead license plate brackets. Heavy-Duty Construction Constructed using only premium materials, the FlatLink Shackle Mount was built to handle any application, any time. Specifically, the FlatLink is constructed out of 6000 Series billet aluminum and is anodized using a Orange powder-coat finish for even more durability. The cable eye is retained by the flatlink by a 5/8" diameter grade 5 steel double shear pin and internal snap ring. This keeps the shackle mount in place and ready to go at moment's notice. What's more, this shackle mount has a max load rating of 16,000 pounds, making your off-road recoveries a breeze. Best of all, this unit is backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty to help keep your investment protected.   Frequently Asked Questions Q: Is the Flatlink E easy to install? A: Yes.
