Winch Ropes & Cables

Winch Ropes & Cables




The big dilemma when replacing your winch rope is to choose between a steel cable and a synthetic rope. Steel cable has been long used as an industry standard on many winches. It's durable, hardly ever prone to abrading and fraying, and perfect for use in rocky and sandy terrains. Steel is not as costly as synthetic and requires less maintenance. If you think a steel cable will cover your winching needs, browse CARiD for the strongest steel cables on the market.

One of the primary things to inspect closely when examining your winch is the cable or rope. Even the smallest flaws can reduce its pulling power and even cause health-threatening situations. We are sure that the last thing you want to do is leave your pride and joy stuck and make a walk of shame back home. To avoid any winching issues, a damaged cable or rope must be replaced asap. Trust CARiD, because we have the finest products for your off-road recovery needs.

A synthetic rope has gained skyrocket popularity as a great alternative to a steel cable. It's undoubtedly much safer, therefore being now widely used in major off-road events. Due to its light weight and flexibility synthetic rope stores less kinetic energy than a steel cable, so it won't whip anyone in case it snaps. It's easier to handle and easier on your hands. After all, the choice between a steel cable and a synthetic rope really comes down to your personal preferences. CARiD has a wide selection of steel cables, synthetic ropes and recovery straps for your safe and enjoyable off-roading.

My cable broke, so on the advise of a friend I replaced it with the synthetic rope. So far so good, the rope is much easier to handle and maneuver around, easy to install and seems to be just as strong as my cable was or better. It's a cleaner look and I like the orange.
