Red Winch S-50 Snatch Ring

[moomic]

Has anybody in North America been able to source the S-50 snatch ring. Every snatch ring I have found has been to large. The S-50 has an outside diameter of 90mm, but every snatch ring I have found on Amazon is 96mm or greater.
I ordered a recovery kit the other day and the snatch ring is too big to fit in the winch rope loop. Options are order from Red Winch UK, or get the Factor 55 Flat Splicer.

In my view these should be supplied by the Ineos dealer as it is recommended that they are used with the OEM winch. Here is a post I made replying to @CountyV8 in the winch manual thread back in 2023

Hi all here is the latest winch manual.

I notice it says all attachments and devices fitted to the winch rope to be removed before going on public roads in the EU regions which may be of interest to some who are contemplating fixing permanent winch rope thimbles/eyes and to all ways use the winch rope together with the red winch compatible snatch ring S50. Surely if you have to use the the winch rope loop fitted with the S -ring 50 then it should be supplied with the winch and not having to buy that as an extra accessory. Maybe I’m over thinking this

Factor 55 Standard Synthetic Rope... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RMZXFQL?tag=globalgrena0b-20
This for the rope loop, then preferred shackle. The recovery ring is to use as a pulley along with a soft shackle, not for the line’s end.

My understanding is that the Red winch snatch ring 50 is to be used for the same purpose as the factor 55 ring you quoted when using the Ineos winch line. It is a bit too small to be used as a snatch ring for the Grenadier in my view and I’ve chosen a bigger ring for that purpose

Yes, I saw that post and agree that Ineos should have included the "required" S-50 snatch block

Again agreed. Also the S-50 is for rope sizes 8-10mm and the winch line is 11mm, so the S-50 is not in spec according the Red Winch's own documentation. It is a substandard size compared to most other snatch rings. Thanks for the Amazon link. Now my decision is the Factor 55 Flat Splicer or 00080 Winch Shackle Mount
