Overview

Here at Master Pull we believe that a synthetic winch extension is an absolute must have item in any winch recovery kit. You never know when your winch line will be just short of the closest anchor point, leaving you stuck and stranded. The Master Pull Classic Winch Extension gives you the extended reach you need and some piece of mind when out on the trail. It’s especially useful in winch recoveries involving snatch blocks which typically require a long length of line. Carrying an MP Classic Synthetic Winch Extension will ensure you get your vehicle recovery rigged up properly, no matter the scenario.

Advantages

Over Steel Wire Rope

The Master Pull Classic Winch Extension was designed to be extremely lightweight and tough. We use heavy duty Technora chafe protection in the eyes instead of steel thimbles to keep the weight down and allow for a wide variety of hooks and shackles to fit in the eyes of the winch extension. A Rope Strap is included with every extension for easy, tangle free storage. You can also use it to strap the winch extension to a roll cage or bumper hoop for quick access.

Like our Classic Winch Line, the Classic Winch Extension is made in the USA out of genuine Dyneema SK75 synthetic fiber, which has many benefits over steel wire rope. The Classic Winch Line Extension is so light, that in the event of breakage it will not violently snap back like steel wire rope will, making it much safer. The reduced weight also allows for easier use than steel wire, and the soft fiber will not cut hands with splinters or burrs. On top of all these benefits, size for size, the Classic Winch Extension is stronger than the steel wire counterpart.

Side Note

Despite all the benefits that the Classic Winch Extension has over steel wire rope, there some issues to keep in mind. Synthetic rope is more prone to abrasion and chafe damage than wire rope, so proper precautions must be made to ensure that the winch rope is rigged properly and isn’t rubbing on rocks, trees or other abrasive surfaces under tension. This is why we developed our removable Rock Guard to protect the rope when you can’t avoid contact with abrasive surfaces. With proper use and care, the Classic Winch Extension will last just as long, if not longer than a steel wire rope. For more information on maintenance, visit our Synthetic Rope Maintenance page.
