Where it is used
This rope is for skidding winches and yarders. Jakob’s forestry ropes are made for heavy pulling in continuous work, and they wind onto the drum without twisting or crushing, so the drums and pulleys wear less.
Sizes
The table gives each diameter’s Jakob article number, minimum breaking load and weight. The minimum breaking load is the load at which the rope is rated to break, not a working load. Jakob makes other sizes on request.
Ordering
Jakob makes its forestry ropes up to order, with the diameter, length and end connectors chosen for the job. Tell us your winch, the diameter and length you need and the end fittings, and we will confirm what can be supplied.
