Review on CSI Accessories W116 Winch Fairlead by Michael Hellewell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pretty good quality for the cheapest rail I could find

I've ordered 4 of these, 3 of one version and one that looks like an older version. They're great for the relatively light project I'm using them for. They were all packed in an individual box, all but one was also in bubble wrap. The packaging doesn't matter anyway, it will take some effort to damage it. Three loops were built using bars with C clamps to hold the bars. The casters use plastic bushings with a footprint of approximately 0.40" (10mm) on each side. This version had a 10mm (0.40") diameter mounting hole and a 10mm x 20mm notch ( 0.40" x 0.80". The center-to-center distance of the hole within the slot is 4.8" (120mm). Dimensions are approximately 6.25" x 3.2" (160 mm x 80 mm). the dimensions are a bit larger it was also missing a slot and it had two round mounting holes i think the performance will be the same for both variants the boxes were not labeled so it was not possible to tell which version was in which box was. The person who picked the order couldn't know what speed it was. I hope I built the last one with bolts.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other alternatives
