BILLET4X4 U.S. made AMSTEEL BLUE WINCH ROPE 7/16 inch x 100 ft (23,925 lb strength) (4X4 VEHICLE RECOVERY) IN STOCK  SHIPS TODAY! Heavy-duty rope thimble with Class II locking eye splice, and heat-shrink cover. Excellent durability and strength to diameter ratio. Abrasion guard included. 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. Extra-large terminal end, with rope heat-shrunk prior to being glued and crimped into the terminal. We also highly recommend our aluminum Hawse fairleads, specifically designed for synthetic winch rope use. Do not use a roller fairlead to guide your winch rope.
