Roller Fairlead
The use of 4 ways roller fairlead can eliminate the contacting
friction because the fairlead rollers contact with the wire rope. But
the fairlead does not insure the wire rope will wind onto the drum in
an orderly manner. The proper fleet angle within 3° must be
maintained for the wire rope to wind onto the drum in an orderly
manner. If the proper fleet angle is not maintained, it can result in
damage to the winch and wire rope.
Cable Tensioner
The purpose of cable tensioner device is to keep the wire rope
tight on the drum while the winch is in free spool mode or while
there is no load on the wire rope.
