Hello, neighbors. Steven here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look together at our synthetic rope for your Erickson winches. This one is 1/4 inch thick by 50 feet long, and it's rated at 9,360 pounds. So folks, the HMPE synthetic rope here is as strong as steel yet super lightweight. Very lightweight, maybe a pound if even that, and it's easy for you to manage than wound up steel cable.
And as we know, the steel over time can have small breaks and shards, and those kind of things get into your fingers and they're really painful. So, this will eliminate that. It's a polyester sheathing over the top of it at the spool end here, that's gonna protect the rope from heat and abrasion. And you've got the metal in there that would go into the spool itself. Now again, polyester rope is safer to use, easy to handle, lightweight, and with the reduced kinetic energy, results in a less kickback than steel.
Now it can withstand harsh UV rays, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. They've made it to do so. And you've got a nice metal end loop here, protecting that from pulling through the rope or damaging it as well, on the side where you would then put your hook for winching things out. Now, it is not designed for lifting and should not be used if it's at all damaged. So, if you're looking at this one day and you find a part that's maybe broken or something, stop immediately, pick up a new one, put it on.
That way, you can be safe. Again, 1/4 inch thick by 50 feet long, rated at 9,360 pounds. This is the synthetic rope for the Erickson winches. I'm Steven. Thank you so much for your time, folks.
Have a good one.
