Car tow ropes are used to get out a car that got stuck in the mud or snow, for example. Besides, they are indispensable for transporting a stalled car.
Types of car tow ropes
Depending on the material used, there are several kinds of tow ropes distinguished, for example:
- Metal. Reliable, durable items made of twisted strands of metal wire. One of the disadvantages of such ropes is their susceptibility to corrosion. Besides, they are quite rigid which makes it difficult to store them.
- Textile. Compact items which are made from sisal, manila hemp, nylon or other material. Textile ropes can be twisted, braided and strap-type. These soft products won’t damage a car if they get torn. Their disadvantage is high hygroscopicity.
- Polypropylene. These elastic items are ideal for towing a car which is stuck in the mud as they do not sag.
- Aircraft nylon. Durable ropes characterised by moisture and frost resistance. Even at high loads, such items do not stretch out or change their characteristics.
Car tow ropes also differ in load-bearing capacity. As a rule, these items are fitted with loop ends, metal hooks or carabiners. It is recommended to make bowline or towing knot when using the tow ropes with loop ends. It requires some skills and isn’t very convenient to do when it’s raining or freezing. Ropes with hooks or carabiners can be attached quickly and are characterised by high reliability.
Tips on car tow ropes usage
You should keep towing accessories in a dry place. It is especially important for metal and textile items as moisture adversely affects them. Note that some car tow ropes are sold with special covers or bags that make storage easier.
To tow the car successfully, you need to attach the rope properly. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations. If technical characteristics of vehicles allow, it is better to attach the rope slantwise: from the left tow hook of one car and the right tow hook of the other car. This way, the risk of rope being torn is minimized. Besides, this kind of attachment provides a good view for the driver of the towed car.
