Factor 55 sets the standard for innovation and precision in off-road recovery equipment. Every product is engineered and manufactured using state-of-the-art design and testing technologies to ensure unmatched strength, performance, and safety for serious off-roaders and professionals alike.

Each design begins in SolidWorks CAD software and is optimized using COSMOS Finite Element Analysis (FEA)—a powerful simulation process that identifies high-stress areas and allows engineers to add or remove material for maximum performance and minimal weight. Once optimized, every product is lab and field tested to guarantee consistent, repeatable minimum breaking strength values.

Factor 55’s commitment to excellence continues through destructive testing performed at certified facilities equipped with advanced measurement and data-recording equipment. The result: industry-leading recovery gear designed for strength, precision, and reliability when it matters most.


Key Features:

  • FEA Optimized Engineering: Designed using SolidWorks CAD and COSMOS Finite Element Analysis for superior structural integrity.

  • Precision Manufacturing: Built to exact tolerances for consistency and reliability in every recovery.

  • Lab & Field Tested: Every product undergoes rigorous testing to ensure repeatable, verified breaking strength.

  • Destructive Testing: Each design is tested under extreme conditions to validate performance and safety.

  • Performance-Driven Design: Material and geometry are refined for strength-to-weight optimization.

  • Quality Assurance: Engineered and inspected to deliver the highest quality and best value possible.

  • Warranty: Backed by a limited 1-year warranty.


Why Choose Factor 55:

When performance, safety, and engineering precision matter most, Factor 55 delivers. Trusted by off-road professionals and recovery experts worldwide, their products combine cutting-edge design, scientific testing, and real-world validation to give you confidence in every recovery

Easy to attach!

Enjoy the reliability of products they sell. Was easy to attach and after I released the tension in the winch line, was a piece of cake to take off... I might even buy another one as a spare.
