Factor 55 Hawse Fairlead
Extend the life of your synthetic winch rope with Factor 55’s precision CNC machined Hawse Fairlead.
Available in both 1.0" and 1.5" thicknesses, the Factor 55 Hawse Fairleads are engineered from thick USA 6000-series aluminum bar stock, making them significantly stronger and more durable than the industry-standard 0.75". The larger outer radius and tall rope opening reduce stress on rope fibers during high-angle pulls, while compatibility with larger ½” tube thimbles makes them a first-of-its-kind solution. Finished with MIL-A-8625F TYPE III gunmetal gray hard anodizing, these fairleads deliver maximum abrasion resistance and low friction for smoother, longer-lasting rope performance.

Installation & Fitment Notes
- Mounting hardware is not included
- Use bolts supplied by your winch manufacturer when possible
- In some cases, longer bolts may be required (3/8” Grade 5–8 bolts, 1.25–1.5” shank length recommended)
- 7/16” bolts may also be used depending on application
- Always confirm synthetic rope will not contact sharp edges on the bumper or steel fairlead mount
- If needed, enlarge or smooth the mounting plate opening — sand and deburr after grinding
