Factor 55 Rope Guard (Ultrahook)

Solid fit. Recommend proper tools for easy install.

Looks like it will be a fine product. Exactly as advertised. I like that it came with an extra decal so you could match the orientation to the writing on the hook. Although, Factor 55 could have saved a few cents by not attaching the decal in the first place. Be prepared for a little tedious work installing the rivets. I tried 1/4” punch but I felt more comfortable with a 5/16”. The beveled face of the UltraHook makes the task a little awkward, but not impossible. I think I’d rather see the holes threaded and screws included. Once properly installed, this thing isn’t going anywhere. It is now permanently part of hook short of drilling the rivets out and probably damaging the hook itself.

This can save your and others lives, it protects your recovery rope. If you need recovery gear that is robust and fit for purpose, go no further. Do your homework and you will find no better gear!!

Factor 55 never disappoints

Super easy to install with hammer rivets that are supplied with the rope guard. This will save your hinge point on your Factor55 hook.
