Piranha 8,300kg Kinetic Recovery Rope – 9m x 19mm
Make difficult off-road recoveries smoother and more controlled with the Piranha 8,300kg Kinetic Recovery Rope. Designed for recovering compatible 4WDs from sand, mud and other challenging terrain, its nylon construction stretches under load to store and progressively transfer energy to the bogged vehicle.
Unlike a static tow rope, a kinetic recovery rope helps reduce the sudden shock transferred to the vehicles, recovery points and occupants. The 8,300kg model is the lightest option in the Piranha kinetic rope range and should be correctly matched to the lighter vehicle involved in the recovery.
Features
- Designed for kinetic recovery of bogged off-road vehicles
- Stretching nylon construction helps deliver a smoother recovery
- Helps reduce harsh shock loading compared with a static rope
- 9-metre length provides practical separation between vehicles
- Flexible rope construction is easy to handle and store
- Suitable for correctly matched sand, mud and off-road recoveries
Specifications
- Part number: MCM-RR0119
- Published rope rating: 8,300kg / 18,260lb
- Length: 9m / 30ft
- Diameter: 19mm / 3/4in
- Material: 100% nylon
Inclusions
- 1 x Piranha 8,300kg Kinetic Recovery Rope
Choosing the Correct Rope
A kinetic recovery rope should be matched to the Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) of the lighter vehicle involved. A commonly used guide is to select a rope with a rating approximately two to three times the lighter vehicle's GVM. Do not automatically select the strongest rope, as an oversized rope may not stretch effectively with a lighter vehicle.
Important Safety Information
- Connect only to properly rated vehicle recovery points—never a tow ball or transport tie-down point.
- Do not use this rope for lifting or conventional towing.
- Inspect the rope before every use and retire it if cut, damaged, excessively worn or contaminated.
- Use a recovery damper and keep passengers and bystanders well clear.
- Follow recognised recovery procedures and seek professional 4WD recovery training.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a kinetic recovery rope?
A kinetic rope stretches under load, stores energy from the recovering vehicle and transfers that energy progressively to help free a bogged vehicle.
Can this rope be attached to a tow ball?
No. A kinetic rope must only be connected to properly rated vehicle recovery points using suitable rated recovery equipment.
Is the strongest kinetic rope always the best choice?
No. The rope must be correctly matched to the lighter vehicle. A rope that is too heavily rated may not stretch sufficiently to provide an effective kinetic recovery.
