Amsteel Blue Winch Rope - The unparalleled benefits of synthetic winch lines has made AmSteel the number one choice for competition rock crawlers and off-roaders around the world. Made from the revolutionary AmSteel®-Blue 12 strand UHMWPF (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fiber). These ropes yield the maximum in strength to weight ratio and while being stronger than steel cables and much more buoyant. Amsteel Blue synthetic fiber rope has a higher breaking strength than that of steel cable of the same diameter, but weighs less than 1/6. 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 unlike steel cables, synthetic lines store zero energy under stress and in the event of breakage; they do not exert the dangerous and violent whiplash action that a snapped steel. Ropes come with a thimble loop on one end and a chain link for the spool end and feature a 10' abrasion guard that roll directly onto spool with no tangles or mess. 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. AmSteel Blue is the latest development of HMPE fiber in a twelve-strand braided rope utilizing Parallay design with proprietary blue urethane coating. The 5/16" ropes are test rated for a minimum of 12,330 lbs and contain UV Protection.
