Description
Factor 55 Hawse Short Drum Comp Fairleads are unparalleled in the industry. Constructed from a sturdy USA 6000-series aluminum bar and featuring a larger 0.75" size, these fairleads significantly extend rope lifespan. In addition, the slot opening is taller to effortlessly accommodate larger ½" tube thimbles. All Factor 55 Fairleads are coated with a resilient MIL-A-8625F TYPE III gunmetal gray hard-anodized finish that proudly displays a laser-engraved logo. This finish isn't just for show - it offers incredible protection against abrasion and extreme side pulls, making it one of the strongest materials available. Additionally, the low friction coefficient minimizes damage to your rope, ensuring its longevity.Be sure to take note that the mounting hardware is not included. Depending on your vehicle, bumper, and fairlead mounting thicknesses, the shank length of the bolts may need to be adjusted to prevent contact with the body of your winch. In most cases, the supplied mounting bolts from your winch manufacturer will suffice in terms of strength and length. However, for some vehicles, longer bolts may be necessary. Consider starting with 3/8″ Grade 5-Grade 8 bolts in 1.25-1.5″ shank length for optimal fit. Alternatively, 7/16″ bolts can also be used.
