When you're trying to get yourself or someone else out of a jam, the last thing you need is to have to wrestle with a heavy, balky steel cable that easily kinks and will cut you with splinters if you're not careful. Steel cable can also be dangerous if it snaps. The weight of the cable and tremendous amount of kinetic energy stored can cause a lot of damage when the cable kicks back.
Upgrade your winch to light weight, easy to manage synthetic rope. Smittybilt Synthetic Winch Rope is manufactured from Dyneema SK-75, a fiber with a very high strength to weight rating. It's 1/7th the weight of steel cable yet much stronger, and won't kink, curl or splinter. It's UV and abrasive resistant, won't stretch a lot, and it floats, which can be helpful in recovery operations where a lot of water is involved. Specially coated to prevent slippage of the winch drum, this rope comes with a 10' protective sleeve, stainless steel thimble, and safety hook with connector link, meaning it comes complete with nothing else to buy.
XRC Synthetic Rope comes in several diameter, length, capacity combinations and it's covered by a limited 1-year warranty.
Smittybilt®, located in Compton, California, is the leader in the off-road parts and accessories market because they were there at its inception. Founder Basil Smith, also known as "Smitty", was one of the original Southern California 4WD enthusiasts. He started a business called Rock-ett Products, making specialized equipment for trucks and Jeeps, in his garage/machine shop in 1956. Smitty's son Tom began working at Rock-ett at an early age and became head of the ever-expanding enterprise when it became Smittybilt in the 1970s. Under Tom's leadership, the company created innovative products like the original "Nerf Bar" side step, and tubular front and rear bumpers for Jeeps. Today, thanks to their continued involvement in off-roading at all levels of the staff, which enables them to keep abreast of the latest trends and needs in the off-road market, Smittybilt remains the industry leader with a selection of over 2000 different products for trucks and SUVs.
