The Splicer
MSRP: $103.75
Factor Direct: $83.00
Product Description
The world’s first splice on synthetic rope shackle mounting thimble with rope protection and integrated rubber pad.
The unique machined rope passage provides a tough outer barrier to protect against rope impact and abrasion as well as UV exposure protection. Compatible with synthetic ropes up to 1/2″ in diameter.
NOTE: Unlike the Factor 55 ProLink and Flatlink shackle mount products, The Splicer requires synthetic rope splicing knowledge. We recommend either the locking Brummel Splice or Long Bury Splice. There are many rope splicing video tutorials available on the web.
Made in USA.
Patent Pending.
WLL: Due to the splice-on design, the Working Load Limit (WLL) is based on the rope diameter used. Each Splice-On Shackle Mount exceeds minimum bend radius requirements to provide full breaking strengths of synthetic winch lines used.
*LIMITED EDITION color options– Limited Edition Colors can be out of stock frequently. If you have any questions you can call 208-639-1674 for availability and pricing.

Clocktower –
Finally a product that provides the safety of a thimble without all the extra, unnecessary parts. Don’t be intimidated by the requirement to splice this thimble onto your winch line; all you really need is a bit of electrical tape and a marker (though a fid makes it even easier). I was working with 3/8″ line and used the 3/8 Fid from Samson. To see how a splice is actually done, google the “long bury” or “brummel” splice. Trust me, you can do this.

Factor 55 splicer works perfectly. Must be spliced professionally with a splicing FID specifically sized for your synthetic line. Tying the line in a knot is a No Go in this lane. Do NOT tie the line.
