Synthetic
Winchrope made from UHMPE (Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) fiber. At
a fraction the weight of steel cable (less than 1/6), it is impressively up to
35% stronger. This makes our U.S. Made winchrope more convenient and safer than
conventional steel wire cable. Easy to handle and also floats on water. Not
stiff like cable, it won't get all wound-up (like cable) when unspooled. It
can't develop sharp frays, and it doesn't conduct electricity or heat (won't
freeze your hands in winter). It won't rust, doesn't kink, doesn't recoil,
doesn't stretch, and consequently doesn't store energy, so in the event of
exceeding the high strength rating, if it breaks, synthetic winchrope has
minimal snapback. Synthetic fiber rope is the latest development of UHMPE fiber
in a twelve-strand braided rope utilizing Parallay design with proprietary
urethane coating. Synthetic winch rope was introduced to the off-road vehicle
markets in the 1990’s. It rapidly became a must-have accessory for both
hard-core rockcrawlers and off-road enthusiasts.
SAFETY ORANGE. 5/16" by-the-foot. (15,000lb MBS) Excellent durability and strength to diameter ratio. Splice your own winch lines!
Heavy-duty
UV-resistant urethane coated for longevity & abrasion resistance.
Weighs less
than 1/6 of steel cable. Won't unravel in storage. Can't develop sharp frays.
Doesn't recoil. Won't rust. Doesn't kink. Doesn't stretch. Doesn't store
energy.
Abrasion
guard also available. Ask us about it! The guard is flexible and compact enough
to wind in with the rope. Comes right back out when you unspool. Move the guard
along the length of the rope to guard against rock outcrops, etc. when
winching.
Winchline
Thimbles, and winch Hooks also available. We also highly recommend our aluminum
Hawse fairleads, specifically designed for synthetic winch rope use. Do not use
a roller fairlead to guide your winch rope. It's simple - have the right
equipment, so everything works as designed. NEED A CUSTOM LENGTH? GIVE US A
