Kinetic Recovery Rope System
WeatherTech’s Kinetic Recovery Rope System is as much for the hobbyist who explores uncharted terrain as it is for the everyday driver. And much like car insurance, you won’t appreciate it until you need it. But when you’re buried, you’ll be glad to have it stashed in your cargo area.
A must-have in any vehicle emergency kit, this solution harnesses the power of kinetic energy to smoothly recover a vehicle from embankments, snow, mud and sand. We offer two sizes: 7/8”, ideal for vehicles between 2700 and 4278 kg., and 3/4”, ideal for vehicles between 1815 and 2872 kg. There are also a la carte options if you choose to purchase just a rope or shackles on their own.
WeatherTech’s kinetic energy recovery rope is the safer choice compared to tow straps, which can cause a rebound effect that may harm people or their vehicles. Its soft, lightweight shackles won’t damage vehicle recovery points like steel can, and the rope’s polymeric coating ensures a strong, watertight seal that helps prevent mold and mildew. And, unlike steel, you’ll be able to utilize the shackles in any climate or condition because they will never freeze, and remain buoyant in water.
Finally, the American-made construction of both the rope and shackles means you’re getting the highest quality, most durable rope and shackles on the market, so you can feel confident in any situation.
