Rope holding issues solved
We have all encountered clutches that won’t hold a rope properly, but figuring out the best solution is not always obvious.
The first step is to examine the existing cams. Are they the correct size for each line? And how badly are they worn? Wear can have a massive effect on the amount of load a clutch can hold without the rope slipping. And once the line does start to slip the rate of wear accelerates rapidly.
Fortunately replacement cams are available for all the major brands of clutches, generally at a small fraction of their replacement
