If you’ve chosen to run an eyelet at the end of your synthetic or steel winch line, loop guards from Factor 55 provide tension for the rope when cinched against fairleads to protect loops from abrasion, impact, and damaging UV light.
The Loop Guards from Factor 55 include an integrated rubber guard for surface protection and fairlead cushion.
Some users prefer a minimalist winching setup.
Often, this means not having a hook, thimble, or shackle mount at the end of the line.
However, in these situations, a rope loop is left dangling out of the fairlead, collecting dirt, road grime, and debris, and is exposed to damage.
This exposure can shorten the life of the winch rope.
Constructed from billet aluminum for durability against impact and finished in a Mil-Spec hard gray anodized coating.
Made in the USA.
Standard (Truck/SUV): Fits steel cable/rope to 7/16 diameter.
