Off-roading and overlanding are 50% driving skill and 50% knowing what to do when you get stuck. And you will get stuck. For that 50% of the time that you*re not navigating trails, a proper recovery system is essential. A winch with a strong line, a few shackles, and something to connect them together are the bare minimum when it comes to recovery. In between your winch line and whatever you*re using as an anchor, you need something that rotates and takes the strain off your winch line. Twenty years ago, you*d be lugging around a heavy steel snatch block and wondering if you greased the bearing recently. But these days, there*s a lightweight, simple, safer, and more durable solution in the form of recovery rings. This Mishimoto recovery ring is constructed from ultra-lightweight aircraft grade 6061 aluminum and weighs in at about 1/3 the weight of traditional snatch blocks. Its simple design makes recovery just as simple without worrying about failed or worn-out bearings. Our specially engineered recovery ring features radiused faces that prevent your soft shackle from clamping down on the rings edge, reducing friction for a smoother recovery. The large inner and outer diameters slow the ring*s rotation, and the military-grade hard-anodized coating further reduces friction and prevents scratching that can damage synthetic winch lines. The Borne Off-Road truck and Jeep recovery ring accepts a 1/2-inch winch line and has a working load limit of 22,000 lbs. making it strong enough to recover even the largest off-road vehicle. And, like all our products, it*s backed by our Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty for a lifetime of smooth recoveries.
