That's not going to last. The Winch Cable Hook is made of forged steel. It's just a thin coat of spray paint on the surface. There don't appear to be any multiple layers, galvanized layers, or anything like that. It's just a regular spray paint can. That said, it's very strong and durable (so far), and one of the hook's best features is that it can be placed anywhere along a 3/8" chain's length. This is impossible with most hooks because there isn't enough space on either side of the link being connected to allow a link to pass through.
I bought this tow/winch hook for my wife's truck because she likes pink, but last weekend (June 17th, 2021) 6/21/2021) I actually used the winch and this hook to pull a full-size pickup truck that was stuck in the sand (out of gas). I pulled a full-size Chevy suburban from the sand with barely a scratch on the hook, so I know it's well-made. I'll be buying more Autobots merchandise in the future.
One of the lynch pins was cut too short and was unable to be used. This company does not have a contact, and Amazon also stated that they do not have one. I went to Tractor Supply and purchased a 1/2" lynch pin for $4. 00. I would give this product a 5 star if it weren't for the fact that I had to purchase a lynch pin.
I gave it back to you. The lack of any working limit markings, as well as the offset drilled hole for the linchpin, made me suspicious. It had a nice powder coat finish and would look great on a mall crawler. br>br>.
It appears to be well-made and capable of completing the task. The only flaw was that the powder coat had a few flaws that went all the way down to the metal, but that'll happen with use anyway.
Good price, good packaging, quick shipping, and a heavy-duty hook, to be sure. It was a last-minute addition to my wife's winch, so I ordered it for Christmas. I got it three days before Christmas. During the busiest time of year, I received it about a day and a half after ordering it.
This is a HUGE, long-lasting, well-made hook that is well worth the money! It's large, heavy, and well-priced!.
