FlatLink E Winch Shackle Mount Red (00080-01)

The FlatLink E in Red is the expert version of the folding FlatLink winch shackle mount, with a large pear shaped opening that takes either end of a screw pin shackle or clips straight to a factory recovery point. Rated to 16,000 lb with ultimate failure above 40,000 lb, it installs in minutes with no splicing on steel or synthetic winch line up to 3/8 in. The wider opening also lets a shackle rotate and side load during a slack moment, so the maker recommends the standard FlatLink for recreational use and the E for operators who actively watch their rigging.

Features

• Replaces the winch hook with a stronger shackle or D-ring mount that folds into the fairlead when stowed.
• Large pear shaped mounting hole takes a screw pin shackle by its pin or its bow, plus most OEM recovery points.
• Works with 3/4 in screw pin shackles and soft shackles up to 3/4 in.
• No splicing needed, suits steel or synthetic winch line up to 3/8 in.
• Line eye retained by a 5/8 in 6Al-4V grade V titanium double shear pin with a simple snap ring.
• Folds to under 1.75 in thick for a lower profile and a better approach angle than a ProLink.
• Precision machined from 6000 series billet aluminum.
• EPDM rubber guard on four barbed tips protects alloy fairleads, cushions the stowed line and stops rattle.
• Clears common roller fairlead licence plate brackets.
• 16,000 lb maximum load with ultimate failure above 40,000 lb.
• Suits closed-system winching rigs built entirely from closed-link hardware.
• Expert product: the wide opening can allow shackle side loading during slack, so monitor the rigging through every pull.
