TRED GT Kinetic Rope

TRED GT Kinetic Rope TRED GT Kinetic Ropes use the kinetic energy generated during use to help in removing a stranded vehicle. The combination of the recovery vehicle pull and the tension in the rope creates a ‘snatching’ effect that can pull a vehicle free from being stuck or unable to move itself. When used in accordance with these guidelines, vehicles may be recovered with minimal risk of injury to people, or damage to vehicles or equipment. It is very important to use the correct recovery rope. A rope with a ‘too light” breaking strength may break under load. A rope with a ‘too heavy’ breaking strength may not be stretched properly and more stress will be placed on the recovery points, possibly causing damage or injury. The minimum breaking strength of the rope should be between two and three times the GVM of the ‘lighter’ of the two vehicles used in the recovery process. Please note that the recovery rope will be under greater load if the vehicle is bogged in mud, sand or heavily loaded. If the GVM is not stated on the identification plate of a vehicle or its registration certificate, it could be available from the owner’s handbook or from the vehicle manufacturer.
