OVERVIEW
The KFI Split Cable Hook Stopper (ATV-SCHS) protects winch components by anchoring the recovery line and preventing premature damage to fairlead rollers and cable ends. This heavy-duty accessory eliminates dangerous hook rattle and reduces friction wear during operation, ensuring cleaner performance on the trail. Built with a modular split design, it installs easily over the line using bolt-together hardware for quick adjustments or upgrades.
ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE
This component holds the winch rope or cable in a fixed position near the end of the drum to maintain consistent line tension. The two-piece housing clamps directly around the line, stabilizing the cable and preventing it from sliding back under load. By keeping the hook seat flush against the stopper, the device eliminates metal-on-metal clatter and stops the cable hook from banging against fairlead edges. The setup also shields internal winch gears and drums from the abrasion and impact hazards associated with loose or over-spooled lines.
