For use with synthetic HMPE winch line ONLY

Weighing in at 2.2lbs you can now reduce your total weight in your recovery gear kit SIGNIFICANTLY. Two of these rings (and three soft shackles{2 double loops and 1 single loop}) can do the job of 4 standard snatch blocks and 5 hard shackles! That is a huge reduction in total weight and gives you a massive increase in configuration options! Gone are the days of worrying about corrosion or bearing maintenance after a messy and wet recovery.

High-quality HMPE winchline can handle operating temperatures of 190°-212° Fahrenheit (100°C) and typically begin to melt around 300° Fahrenheit (144°C) over an extended period of exposure. The Off-set Winch Ring XL operates in temperature bands less than that of allowable maximum HMPE operating temperatures ensuring your winchline is as happy as can be. Current parasitic friction loss while pulling at peak loads is estimated to be around 10% depending on the quality of the winchline line coating.

WARNING:

When performing a winch recovery, start with a single line pull (1:1), and work up to other configurations, ie 2:1 ---> 3:1, etc. The risk of overloading your tow/connection points increases with each additional configuration. Never exceed a 5:1 pull with this ring.

A 4:1 pull should ONLY be done by professionals, using 2 winch rings, a safety catch sling, and double loop 7/16" soft shackles are required. In these configurations, it is easy to exceed the rating of some tow/connection points, you MUST KNOW those ratings before use.

These are NOT designed for heavy-duty wrecker use. Use ONLY electric bumper-mounted winches rated at 12k lb or less. NEVER use Steel Cable with this ring, Only use a Synthetic (HMPE) winch line no larger than 7/16" diameter.

HUGE BENEFITS

Cut the equipment you carry in half, reducing weight, saving space
Reduces line load and strain on winch
Up to a 4 part line with only two winch rings
No friction build up on the shackle from a spinning ring
Reduce line speed

NO BABYSITTING

A traditional winch ring requires someone to babysit the winch line, making sure it doesn't fall out of the groove while the line is slack. Also, if you have ever winched while climbing rocks, the vehicle can lurch forward, causing the line to drop out of the groove, then the vehicle can slip back down, causing the full tention to be placed on the soft shackle. Needless to say, it needed a solution for this. With the offset winch ring, on a 2:1 set up, you can dive through the hole instead of the groove, now the line will never fall out.

Winching Will Never Be The Same

Yankum has set out to constantly revolutionize the recovery world. We have done it again.

2 Part Setup (2:1)

In a 2 part pull, you are able to place tension on two parts of the line, making one line act like two winches. This allows you to either double your pulling force, or redirect your pull, in the event you are not able to line your vehicle up with the stuck vehicle.

3 Part Setup (3:1)

Here we add one more winch ring. On a redirect we now see almost a 50% increase in pulling power over a 2:1. Our other set up pictured, we are generating 8000 lbs of pull with only 3000 lbs of input. We are also distributing the pull on multiple points of the stuck vehicle.
