Famous Four Plasma Winch Rope
|  | As new innovations go this one is pretty darn special: Plasma winch rope is the modern alternative to traditional steel wire cable and as such is able to trump its older counterpart in a number of ways.Firstly it is incredibly lightweight: According to Famous Four plasma winch rope weighs less than nine percent of an equivalent run of steel cable. Not only this but with a 7.9 tonne minimum breaking strain for straight pulls it is in many cases also the stronger of the two options. Other bonuses include that this plasma rope is hard wearing as it's impregnated to improve abrasion resistance and should the rope snap for any reason under tension it's safer as there's minimal recoil. On top of this, plasma rope will not splinter or kink. Famous Four are currently offering 9.5mm plasma rope, pre-cut to 30m (100ft) lengths for the great price of £171.35. This includes a pre-rigged 'eye' type sling for attachment. So if you're looking for an up-to-date alternative to a classic mainstay then visit www.famousfour.co.uk for more information. | | Contact Famous Four 01507 609444 www.famousfour.co.uk |
| | Goodwinch TDS Goldfish Series Winches |  | In you're searching for a high quality, but equally an affordable winch for your 4x4 then you should definitely take a look at the range currently on offer from Goodwinch. We're looking at the selection of TDS Goldfish Bridge models; the TDS-9.5i and the TDS-12.0i. These are in bumper units suited to a number of off-road vehicles such as the pictured Land Rover Defender. As individual names imply the TDS-9.5i is able to offer 9,500lb of towing power whilst the slightly more heavy-duty TDS-12.0i is capable of 12,000lb. The TDS-9.5i also has a fast line speed ratio of 173:1 whilst the TDS-12.0i is suited to serious vehicle rescue operators with a 254:1 ratio. In addition all TDS Goldfish series winches feature exclusive sealed motor drum supports. This additional waterproofing feature helps to make Goodwinch a reliable choice no matter what sort of off-road conditions you'll be pitting these winches against. The TDS-9.5i retails at £349 and is ideal for most off-roaders. However, if you're looking for slightly more pound-for-pound pulling power then the TDS-12.0i costs slightly more at £379. Interested?
