Synthetic Winch Rope Ex China

[3VILC]

Morning guys

Thinking about ordering some winch rope in the next few weeks direct from manufacturer. With the exchange rate, price is quite good at the moment.

Anyone else wanting to order some in no hurry and share the shipping?
Just waiting on a shipping estimate from the dealer at the moment.

Some example prices 8mm Dyneema $3.09US (NZ3.54), 8mm UHMWPE $2.23US (NZ2.55), 9mm UHMWPE $2.75US.

If interested or want me to ask prices for other sizes flick me a PM

just a heads up bro, you get what you pay for...

if your hanging off a winch rope would you rather say

"i hope this chinese stuff is good..."

or

"fark this Dynex Dux is the farkin shizzel!!!"

I guess this is true..but surely dyneema is dyneema.. I dont use mine hugely often just need something on it so I can use, and broken arse with kids n all u know how it is haha. And by the time u factor in shipping and everyone adding on a markup would account for some if not most of the price difference.

Shipping on one only 25m rope around $40US, so less for more ropes obviously would need to give an exact order to get an accurate shipping quote by weight. (Example quote 25M 8m dyneema $130NZ incl shipping)
