Maybe you've heard about a rope that's replacing wire rope for winch lines--this is it! This rope is made from HMPE (High Modulus PolyEthylene) that is stronger than wire rope (aka steel cable) size-for-size. To be clear--if you pull this rope against a steel winch line of the same diameter, you will break the steel winch line first! It has many other great benefits too, such as being flexible, easily spliced, repairable in the field and even floating on water. You can even use this rope in freezing conditions!
Around here, in the Pacific Northwest, many call this "logging rope" because so many loggers have used it to make extensions, or even as a drum line (aka winch line). Looking to buy the rope by itself? Check it out at this link. We offer it online in diameters from 1/4" thru 1-1/2" but we can get even larger diameters if needed. And please, stack this rope up against the competition and you'll see how well it specs out. Be sure to compare the minimum breaking strength!
We have one local customer that retrieves off-road vehicles for a living. They have put this rope to the test time and time again, expecting it to fail. Guess what! It hasn't! They have had a few straps (yes, we can splice straps for you too) in service for years, and they're still performing well. You won't be disappointed!
