Daystar Products now offers a simple and economical way to upgrade a standard w in. roller fairlead to work with any synthetic rope. Daystars Rope Rollers replace the steel rollers on any conventional fairlead so you can retain the benefits of a roller fairlead while running synthetic w in. rope. Synthetic w in. rope is rapidly becoming standard equipment on trail rigs because it offers several performance and safety advantages over conventional w in. cable. However, there are unseen costs associated with converting a w in. to use synthetic rope. The steel rollers on a conventional roller fairlead are not compatible to synthetic rope because they can cause chafing and abrasion. Most rope manufacturers recommend using an aluminum Hawse-type fairlead. These fairleads can cost over $100, not to mention the extra time and hassle of installation. Further, some bumper designs are not compatible with a Hawse type fairlead. Daystars Rope Rollers are constructed of durable polyurethane material for superior chafing resistance. Polyurethane provides a smooth surface for the rope to slide against while being virtually unbreakable. Designed to withstand the tremendous forces that a modern w in. can dish out, the Rope Rollers will not groove or gall during angled pulls. They work with any standard 5,000-9,000-lb. roller fairlead regardless of the manufacturer. Combine Daystars Rope Rollers with a W in. Isolator to complete your customized w in. installation.
