Synthetic Winch Rope, 1/4 Inch x 50 Feet 9,500LBs Winch Cable Line with Protective Sleeve for ATV UTV (Blue)

Even though I don’t have a winch this rope is good to have in truck just in case you need something thin and strong. For the price you can’t beat it.

Fits well much better than the steel cable, also I was not able to find this item anywhere in the stores around me. No harbor, freight tools no tractor supply nothing. Amazon is the only place really where you can find them.I would buy it again.

I use my badlands ATV winch a lot for work around my land. I have broken the rope more than once. This is a good replacement at a very reasonable price. I wish they had a longer rope option. Something like an 80’ option in this size.

Used it for chair lift Crain. Works great

Replaced my broken winch line and it’s been working just fine fire my atv plow.

Product is exactly as stated, satisfied

Last winter was the first year I actually used the Synthetic rope on my 13,000 lb. winch, I always had steel wire on the winch before this year. If you remember last winter like I do, it was one of the worst winters in my memory. I had to use my winch about 10 times to pull myself or others out of snow drifts. The hardest pull was when a Mercury Mountaineer got a run at the driveway and overshot and ended up on top of a 3-foot-high plowed bank. The mountaineer was straddling the bank, wheels were completely off the ground. Pulling this vehicle back to the road with a single line (no snatch block) did strain the winch and caused very slow progress. The winch was at it's limit, but the line seemed to have more. The winch has a 1/2 rope on it. Quite a bit bigger than the 3/16 of this. This long story just confirms that these synthetic ropes have a few great advantages over the wire ropes. The weight difference is the greatest difference, a 100-foot 1/2-inch wire rope is very heavy, and a 1/2 synthetic is likely 1/4 of the weight. The synthetic is stronger, has less stretch and doesn't kink or get as twisted up. If you break a wire rope it will snap back and be very dangerous while the synthetic rope will just drop to the ground. The synthetic rope can be stored in a much smaller space and can be wrapped with tighter bends without causing kinks or breaks. The last wire winch cable I used had kinks and bends and broken strands all along the length of it. The synthetic rope I used all last winter still looks perfect. I have used the wire rope for years and was very skeptical that a synthetic rope could ever come close to providing the same capabilities. I am still a bit Leary of plastic matching steel but after this winter coming up, I will likely trust these ropes a lot more. For this specific rope the breaking strength is listed as 8,350 lbs. 1/3 of that is 2,783 which in some cases like a flat straight pull, is a good estimate of the working load. I would not want this rope to be holding a ton over my head but applying 2,700 lbs. of pressure to pull me out of a snow drift I would do. Especially appealing is this 50 feet of rope takes up about the same space and weight as a pair of gloves. Last suggestion is these are for applying pressure not for trying to stretch and snatch something out of being stuck. Take up the slack and then pull. I do recommend having one of the ropes in your car during the winter.

This fit in my battery powered winch. It was smaller diameter then the original rope and i unfortunately broke it after pulling a couple things. I think it would work for a light atv but even a heavy 4x4bid be worried about breaking it. It didnt fly back at all when it broke which is good
