In a great end-to-end, tit-for-tat contest, which could have gone either way, Fax eventually took control in the final 20 minutes to seal a 30-16 victory.
Halifax fans had five tries from Ben Tibbs, Myles Lawford, Ben Forster, Alfie Johnson and Jesse Soric to cheer - with the final hooter signalling a first win since March 27.
