AmSteel-Blue Synthetic Rope is a proven alternative to steel cables and steel
winch lines. Size-for-size, AmSteel-Blue is the same strength as steel wire
rope - yet it floats! These 12-strand, single braid winch lines yield the
maximum in strength-to-weight ratio and are torque free. Meaning attachment
hardware with a swivel is not necessary. AmSteel-Blue has extremely limited
stretching - only 1% at full WLL (4:1). Also, AmSteel-Blue Rope has superior flex fatigue and
is abrasion resistant.
When compared to steel cables, AmSteel-Blue Winch Lines are a fraction of the
weight. For example, a 3/4 " x 100' steel cable weighs 100 lbs while an
AmSteel-Blue rope with the same dimensions only weighs 13.3 lbs - almost 8
times lighter! Just think about how much easier the handling of the synthetic
Amsteel-Blue is for your operators verses a steel cable. Also, it drastically
cuts down on the overall weight of your truck - especially heavy duty rotator
wreckers which have up to 5 to 6 winches!
