Amsteel Rope On a Chainsaw Winch? - 02/06/21 06:38 PM
Do any of you have experience using Amsteel rope on a chainsaw winch. The potential weight savings, floatation in wet environments, and the safety are very appealing.
I was thinking that at the end I could potentially ditch the hook and use a soft shackle through the loop at the end of the Amsteel for attaching to the work.
My initial apprehensions are:
Durability against working in abrasive silt.
Under wraps on the drum rendering the winch drum bound.
Any of you have positive or negative experiences with what I describe?
