Strong as Steel, Safe as synthetic
Built to Take Abuse
This isn’t just another winch line—it’s synthetic steel. Crafted with a UHMWPE core and armored sheath made from the same material, this rope shrugs off sharp rocks, sun exposure, and heat buildup from hard winching sessions. Standard winch lines flatten, fray, and fail. Ours doesn't blink. It’s been field-tested for nearly a year by hardcore recovery crews who break ropes annually—and this one’s still pulling.
Features
20,000 lb MBS Strength – Built to outperform the industry average (17–18K), giving you more margin when it matters most
Dual-Layer Construction – Heat-treated UHMWPE core and armored sheath deliver unmatched durability
Abrasion-Resistant Sheath – Drag it across rocks, brush, or dirt without flinching
UV & Heat Resistant – Won’t degrade from sun exposure or heat buildup during heavy pulls
Smooth On The Drum – Resists flattening and crush spots, even when winched in under tension
Reflective Tracers – Easy to see in low light or nighttime recoveries
Safer for 2:1 Systems – Withstands higher forces at the pulley thanks to elevated breaking strength
Metal-Free Ready – Designed for clean compatibility with soft shackles and removable rope guards
Don’t drag your line over rocks for fun.
We did it for testing—to show what this beast can handle. Everything has a breaking point…This line just raises it. Big time.
Smart Design, Safer Recoveries
When it comes to recovery, the weakest link is usually the rope. That’s why we engineered this line to eliminate as many failure points as possible. The heat-treated core and armored UHMWPE sheath work together to resist heat, abrasion, UV exposure, and flattening — even under extreme tension.
But here’s where it stands apart: It's only .5mm thicker than standard 3/8" winch line.
With a 20,000 lb MBS, this rope gives you the confidence to build mechanical advantage systems safely, especially when fully spooled out where tension is at its highest.
Rethink Recovery. Redefine Strength.
The Kinetic-X Recovery Gear line is designed, built, and tested to be the most reliable, durable, and affordable recovery gear on the market.
It's built to get you back home.
Word on the trail
Jerry C.
"Everything is made with quality... Excellent company and excellent follow up. I would not hesitate to order more items as needed."
Jason G.
"Excellent! Looks high quality and customer service has been friendly and answered any recovery questions I could come up with. Everything looks high quality. No more Amazon knock off recovery gear for me."
Matthew D.
"High quality rope, reflective at night. Dipped ends to make the rope last. Rope shackles are truly game changing- no more clanking, heavy, rusty gear to haul along. Super fast and secure attachment"
Reed M.
"Sandy Cats/Kinetic-X had the best quality-to-price ratio I found. I don't do much off-roading, but I live in the mountains and drive in the snow for a few months of the year. I have a new 4Runner, and I wanted a recovery kit to keep in my vehicle to help others or myself if needed."

"Great value on amazing products. I’m glad I waited until I came across yours!"
Tanner H.
"A fantastic kit for anyone looking to have all your kinetic recovery equipment in one place. The rope offers amazing pull, while being tough enough to stand up to the elements. The Hitch Hero is an amazing piece of equipment that I think should replace common d-rings in most cases, as it is extremely quick and easy to setup."
