Rope Retention Pulley XTV 3/16 to 1/4 in Synthetic Rope (00261)

The Rope Retention Pulley XTV is the powersports size friction pulley, sized for the 3/16 to 1/4 in synthetic rope on UTV and ATV winches and rated 12,000 lb. It was the first side by side winch pulley with patented rubber fingers that hold the rope in the groove during slack, so a quick reset never drops the line. Pair it with a soft shackle to double your pull or redirect it.

Features

• Patented rubber retention fingers keep synthetic rope in the groove when the line goes slack
• Doubles the pull of a UTV or ATV winch or redirects the line without a heavy snatch block
• Oversized hole radius gives the soft shackle a smooth bearing surface and keeps its legs off the edges
• Critical friction surface is PTFE treated for slickness and heat dissipation
• Machined from billet 6000 series aluminum
• Hard anodized to Mil-A-8625 F
• No pinch points, so fewer crushed fingers during rigging
• For synthetic rope only, used with a soft shackle
• Made in the USA

Specifications

• Rope compatibility: synthetic rope 3/16 to 1/4 in
• Working load limit: 12,000 lb
• Finish: hard anodized
• Material: billet 6000 series aluminum

A friction pulley does lose some efficiency, roughly 10 to 20 percent depending on load, so it will not match a bearing snatch block for pure mechanical advantage. What you get instead is a pulley you can rig in seconds, with no pinch points for fingers, that keeps the rope captured in the groove when the line goes slack, and weighs a fraction of a steel block.
