Important Notes
Description
Factor 55 introduces a new line of Aluminum Short Drum Competition Hawse fairleads. This 1.0" thick fairlead is CNC machined from 1 inch thick USA 6000 series aluminum bar. The industry standard fairlead thickness is .75" thick. The thicker, Factor 55 aluminum bar results in a larger outer fillet radius for the synthetic rope to slide against. This results in less stress on the rope fibers during high angular pulls, increasing the life of your expensive synthetic rope.
The Short Drum Comp Fairlead is the industry's first Hawse fairlead compatible with the larger 1/2" diameter rope tube thimbles. The rope slot height opening is taller to allow the larger 1/2" thimbles to pass through. There is also a machined outer corner chamfer to reduce rope stress for those that plan on using the winch as a front suspension "suck down" device. These fairleads come in a durable MIL-A8625F TYPE III gun metal gray hard anodized finish with a machined logo.
