Factor 55 XXL Rope Retention Pulleys

Factor 55 XXL patented rope retention pulleys are lightweight alternatives to traditional heavy snatch blocks/pulleys. Sized for industrial applications, they can be used to increase pulling power or redirect the winch line, and are for use with synthetic rope only in conjunction with a soft shackle. During momentary slack, the patented rope retention rubber fingers prevent synthetic winch rope from escaping the pulley groove preventing premature rope failure. They have an oversized hole radius that provides a smooth rubbing surface and keeps the legs of the soft shackle from rubbing on the edges of the RRP. The critical friction surface has also been PTFE treated to increase slickness and heat dissipation. A reliable choice for recovery operations, order a Factor 55 XXL for your vehicle.

Details:

* For synthetic rope diameters 1/2 to 3/4 in. (12 to 19mm)
* Billet machined 6000 Series aluminum
* Mil-A-8625 F hard anodized surface
* Working load limit: 56,000 lbs. at 3:1 safety factor
* Working load limit: 34,000 lbs. at 5:1 safety factor
* Weight: 68 oz. (1,928 g)

Practical benefits:

* Reduced risk of injury from pinched fingers
* Retaining the rope in the pulley ring under slack conditions
* Elimination of the need to carry heavy snatch blocks
* Faster rigging setups

NOTE: Factor 55 Rope Retention Pulleys experience frictional losses, which can average between 10 to 20 percent depending on the load applied. Despite this efficiency reduction due to friction, the pulleys still provide mechanical advantage.
