Metal-towing-rope-8mm-x-4m
Metal Towing Rope 8mm x 4m
This is a high-strength steel wire towing cable designed for vehicle recovery and emergency roadside assistance. The 8mm thickness places it in a heavy-duty category suitable for larger passenger vehicles, SUVs, and light commercial bakkies.
Key Features
-
8mm Braided Steel: The thick core consists of multiple strands of galvanized steel wire braided together for maximum tensile strength and durability.
-
4-Meter Length: Provides a safe and standard distance between the towing vehicle and the disabled car, allowing the driver in tow enough reaction time to brake.
-
Weatherproof PVC Coating: The steel is encased in a thick plastic sleeve that prevents the wire from rusting and protects your hands and the vehicle's paint from sharp metal burrs.
-
Safety Snap Hooks: Features forged steel hooks with spring-loaded safety latches that ensure the cable stays securely attached to the towing eyes even if the line temporarily goes slack.
-
No-Stretch Pull: Unlike nylon ropes that "bounce," this metal cable provides a rigid, direct pull, making it easier to control a disabled vehicle on flat roads.
