Lone Star Marine Rope & Chain Kit - Suits GX1 Winch

No "One Size Fits All" for LSM rope & chain kits! Lone star marine offer customers 21 possible standard combinations across 5 drum sizes. RC rope & chain kits are double braid nylon plus chain, HSC are HMPE (spectra fibre) rope plus dobule braid nylon topshot & chain. 

Choosing the right drum winch for your boat should start here. Using the chart below:

• Determine the right diameter and length required for your vessel and anchoring situations.
• Choose the right GX Series drum winch to fit the rope desired.

The Rope: Rope is available in Double Braid Nylon (DBN) or Hi Spec HMPE options.

• Double Braid Nylon has excellent stretch without damaging the ropes fibres, which is why lone star marine supplies nylon over polyester. **RC indicates double braid nylon rope.
• HMPE Hi Spec Rope is the same stuff used in 4×4 winches. It is stronger than steel per diameter and goes a long way to adding extra length per given drum size. All HMPE rope kits come with a double braid nylon tops shot for stretch. **HSC indicated HMPE line.
• Breaking Strain - Each run of rope is batch tested to ensure the breaking strains are accurate. Breaking strains on LSM supplied rope kits are noted in the chart below.
• The Chain - LSM stock up to 20,000 meters of chain at any given time in 6, 8, 10, and 13mm short link. All our short link chains are Grade L and comply with the DIN766/A Standard sizing, it is burr free for a smooth finish.
• The Kits - All LSM Rope and chain kits are packaged in house and include 316SS D-shackles. Lone Star Marine pull and cut the chain to measure rather than relying on a middleman “combo” supplier. This allows us to purchase the higher grade chain we want and ensures our customers are getting a quality product.

Please Note:

• **RC is full double braid nylon with chain
• **HSC is HMPE (spectra fibre) with double braid nylon topshot & chain
