Hawse and roller are both types of fairleads, so you have a roller fairlead.
A fairlead is a term used for both synthetic rope and cable. He's saying that you have both rollers (on your fairlead).....and a fairlead. Hawse vs roller....both fairleads.How do you figure that?
Ahhh....gotchaA fairlead is a term used for both synthetic rope and cable. He's saying that you have both rollers (on your fairlead).....and a fairlead. Hawse vs roller....both fairleads.
A fairlead is the appliance for guiding cable or line. There are many types, hawse and roller are just two of those. Has exactly zero to do with synthetic or steel rope.A fairlead is a term used for both synthetic rope and cable. He's saying that you have both rollers (on your fairlead).....and a fairlead.

While you are here, is there any disadvantage to using a roller fairlead with synthetic line?A fairlead is the appliance for guiding cable or line. There are many types, hawse and roller are just two of those. Has exactly zero to do with synthetic or steel rope.
Zero except forward protrusion and weight.While you are here, is there any disadvantage to using a roller fairlead with synthetic line?

Everything you have read is completely full of shit.Everything I have read said that you should not use roller fairleads with synthetic ropes. Unless you get one that is made specifically for synthetic.
Everything you have read is completely full of shit.
Fixed it for you and yes, as a matter of fact I am.Here we go. You some kind of fairlead designer with many years of experience designing recovery equipment?
I literally was, although not that small of a hoist/winch.Here we go. You some kind of fairlead engineer?

Visual aids for types of fairleads. These are a few, there are 100's.A fairlead is a term used for both synthetic rope and cable. He's saying that you have both rollers (on your fairlead).....and a fairlead. Hawse vs roller....both fairleads.
I don't have to know everything there is to know to fully understand if they say that, they are full of shit.Ah. Well fuck you must know everything there is to know. the guys at big foot winch ropes don’t know dog shit.
If somebody wants to add weight they should design a level wind with a diamond screw for their winch.Visual aids for types of fairleads. These are a few, there are 100's.

Yeah because we all need something to keep our lines wound correctly on the drum that costs more than the winch and weighs about the same.If somebody wants to add weight they should design a level wind with a diamond screw for their winch.
Just so you understand, just because some good ole boys found a source for some synthetic line and can cobble together a few products, that doesn't mean they actually know anything. The vast majority of them are repeating the same myths they read on the internet just like the rest of them and you are doing.Ah. Well fuck you must know everything there is to know. the guys at big foot winch ropes don’t know dog shit.
Again proving you understandYeah because we all need something to keep our lines wound correctly on the drum that costs more than the winch and weighs about the same.
Not hard, take any level wind fishing reel and blow that up to monstrous proportions. Doesn't take much to figure out the size to withstand high levels of lateral force makes it large, heavy, and expensive.Again proving you understand
New engineering project, upsize this:Yeah because we all need something to keep our lines wound correctly on the drum that costs more than the winch and weighs about the same.
