Daren McMorris from <dmcmorris@nc.rr.com> was injured
because:

|
| The design of the 8274 makes the rope the last possible
heat

the

a
| standard profile winch( the 8k or 9k series) I can see how
the
| rope would be a definite portion of the heat sink.

Daren McMorris from <dmcmorris@nc.rr.com> was injured
because:
| Mike,
|

heat

the

a

the

The synthetic stuff is NOT crap. It has several advantages over wire
rope, including no fraying of wires to cut the user, it will not kink/
crush if wrapped over itself, it doesn't store energy like a steel cable (
I had a hard time buying that too), and it is lighter which is easier on
the person dragging the cable out.
It's inability to be used as a heat sink and susceptibility to high
temperatures is only a problem if you are using a winch that lets the
drum overheat. If and when I have to put another new cable on my
Milemarker hydraulic I may end up going with the synthetic rope.
