Trailer winch
 

Some 1/4" steel cable is several times stronger than the nylon strapping.

Hi Guys.

I have snapped the main drum axle in my electric "Supercrap" boat winch
and
have decided that I will replace it with a manual one.
I have picked out a couple of suitable 10:1/5:1/1:1 manual winches but
some
have the black webbing and some have cable.

I know cable is good but it also tends to twist and is awkward when
pulling
out of the drum. The webbing type seems much easier to handle but is there
any negatives with the webbing?

Any idea's or suggestions?

Best regards
