Nimbus™ Synthetic Tow Rope, Double 5/8" x 20', 37,000 lbs WLL
The Double 5/8" x 20' Nimbus™ Tow Rope is a compact, high‑capacity synthetic tow rope engineered for demanding recovery, towing, and industrial applications where tight control and strong, reliable performance are critical. With a 111,000 lbs break strength and 37,000 lbs Working Load Limit, it delivers serious pulling power in a short, easy‑to‑manage length.
Product overview
This tow rope uses a 5/8" diameter synthetic construction in a double‑leg configuration to balance high capacity with comfortable handling. The 20' length is ideal for close‑range towing and equipment repositioning, allowing operators to keep the tow vehicle and load at a controlled distance with minimal slack in the system.
Double‑leg design and durability
The double‑leg design spreads the load across two rope legs, enhancing stability and helping maintain capacity under heavy, uneven, or dynamic loads. Abrasion‑resistant, UV‑stable fibers and reinforced terminations at each end are built to withstand repeated use with hooks, shackles, and towing hardware in harsh, real‑world environments.
Safety advantages vs. steel
As a synthetic alternative to steel chains and cables, the Nimbus™ Tow Rope is lighter, won’t rust or kink, and doesn’t develop sharp burrs. It stores less kinetic energy under tension than steel, which helps reduce the risk of dangerous whipping if a component fails. Its reduced weight makes rigging, repositioning, and stowing the rope faster and safer, while lowering operator fatigue.
Ideal applications
This Double 5/8" x 20' Nimbus™ Tow Rope is an excellent choice for:
-
Heavy vehicle and equipment recovery
-
Close‑range towing and load repositioning
-
Construction, agriculture, and utility fleet operations
Pair it with LockJaw shackles, recovery rings, and synthetic winch lines to build a complete recovery system that offers modern performance, enhanced safety, and easier handling than traditional steel towing setups.
