The Yankum Ropes XL winch ring caused some CONTROVERSY 😲

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

@YankumRopes just doesn't quit innovating! After pioneering the use of a multi part line setup with their Offset Recovery Rings, they took the idea a step further and created the Offset Recovery Ring XL! This ring is much wider and uses a 2.25" inner diameter to address the concerns of bending a rope around the tight radius of the standard rings. That also give the outer groove a much wider opening that helps keep the rope from falling out, and helps with off angle pulls. But the coolest thing that Yankum is doing, is they are sending the updated XL rings to everyone they can who ordered through my affiliate link after I posted the original video on April 23rd 2023 and was placed on backorder. So if you ordered through my link and your rings haven't shown up yet, these XL rings are the ones you'll be getting!
For full disclaimer, this video was NOT sponsored by Yankum Ropes, and I was under no obligation to make it. I wanted to make this video to correct some very wrong information that has recently been put out by others, and dispel a few of the flat out LIES that have been said about me by a very jealous person

    I'd like to thank the loudmouth "experts" who make fools of themselves by attacking other experienced professionals. These knuckleheads do two things for us; 1) it proves to us how insecure they truly are and 2) it prompts the real experts to make videos which prove them wrong and secondarily, provides the rest of us with an "in the weeds" explanation of your methods and reasoning. Thanks for keeping it real!

As much as I really liked the demonstration of all the technical aspects, I wished you would have refrained from engaging with idiots. Towing is a real thing in the real world with real physics and real aspects of thermodynamics, idiots on the net are just bits and bytes.

    Many years ago as part of his employment as a heavy vehicle mechanic, my brother as sent on a recovery/towing course. It was 6 weeks full time and was run by the Australian Army. They classified that course as a beginners. The full course took at least 6 months, but it did include tank recovery which wasn't much use in suburban Australia. He constantly ran into people who tried to tell him how to do a recovery or towing set up, when they had no actual experience or formal training.

This is one of them channels, I'm aware of "The Experts" channel and from what I saw, it's nothing I would miss not watching to put it nicely. Surprisingly, when I was at a rally last weekend, many of the military vehicle owners were fans of the same channels, most of the guys who participated or was at the off-road wrecker games. There are some channels based out of England and Australia that are quite good as well. That said, Casey just keep doing you buddy, excellent content as always and no bs which always highly appreciated.

    Casey, no matter what others say about you, just go your own way. There are always those so-called experts who know better with their mouths but can't do anything with their hands. Don't worry about it and continue as you are doing now. You are a good guy with a big heart for nature and fellow man. greetings from Holland

    Dyneema has a huge disadvantage in firefighting. It has a very low melt point. At less than 300f(140c) it melts (this might very by 10C from manufacture to manufacturer); @140F(60c) it is only good for 80% strength and it gets worse from there. If you don't get it to hot it is probably the best weight to strength ratio rope you can get. Kevlar isn't as strong as Dyneema and has some other issues like abrasion. But it has a much higher melt temp, something like 350C. It would likely be a better al be it much more expensive option in hot environments. My background with ropes is in rock climbing, high angle rescue, and water rescue. I'm not an expert and I have never been a fire fighter. On a side note as the Son of a volunteer fire fighter, Thank you for your service.

Turned on to soft shackles and rings in my research but couldn't find YOU. I held off on purchases on three occassions. Timing is everything! Thanks. BTW, your earlier video was everything you said, proving concept with action, and not making rediculous claims, or confusing Fahrenheit temp with Celsius temp ratings. Rubbish. ("Rubbish" is the word I settled on to replace "horse sh!t" in my church vocabulary.) Thanks. You're going in the right direction. Subscribed happily. DOUG out

    Casey - I really enjoy your videos and admire the whole range of what you are showing us online! About rings versus pulleys, my preference for pulleys comes from a different situation and I admit that that. In wilderness / mountain SAR these mechanical advantage systems run much longer distances than most off road vehicle recoveries. Rope lengths of 300', 600' and 1200' feet. Some connected together for pulls of a 1/4 mile and longer. The point being the time of constant motion is far higher than any winch pull of the typical stuck vehicle. Plus it is human life on the line, not hardware. So the use of the least friction gear / setup possible, the least heat rise and loss of efficiency, is deeply ingrained. I am NOT complaining about what you do, I'm frankly envious of how much fun you are having! I'll always have my preference for a bearing pulley over a ring simply because of all those years and hundreds of missions doing so. Anyway, not that you need my urging but you keep on keeping on with what you are doing and this retired old SAR Guy will keep on enjoying what you want to share with us all! :)

So I just listen, learn - and am a little ashamed for totally having forgotten the math for winching / hoisting. And then I hadn’t yet seen you pointing out the screaming about dangerously high temperatures - which happened to be in Celsius 😁
