Dominate the Mud with The VIPER Recovery Rope

Get Unstuck Faster with Yankum’s Game-Changing Kinetic Recovery Rope.

Built for Power, Designed for Precision

When you’re bogged down in mud, sand, or snow, you need strength you can rely on. The VIPER 5/8-inch Recovery Rope is purpose-built for side-by-sides (SXS) and utility vehicles (UTVs), making recoveries faster, safer, and easier. With a breaking strength of 14,800 lbs, it’s the recovery tool that keeps you going, no matter the challenge.

Why Choose The VIPER?

Power You Can Count On

With an incredible 14,800 lbs of breaking strength, The VIPER is designed to handle even the toughest recoveries for vehicles weighing 1,400-2,999 pounds.

Superior Performance over Flat Straps

Unlike traditional flat webbing straps, our kinetic recovery ropes stretch and contract, delivering a smoother, safer recovery that reduces strain on both vehicles.

Perfect for UTVs and SXS

Tailored specifically for small off-road vehicles, The VIPER is your trusted companion for adventures off the beaten path.

Built Tough, Made to Last

Crafted from high-quality materials, Yankum Recovery Ropes are known for their durability and reliability, ensuring you'll never get stuck without a solution.

How It Works

1. Hook Up with Ease

Attach The VIPER between the stuck vehicle and the recovery vehicle using compatible shackles or recovery points.

2. Harness the Power of Kinetics

The VIPER stretches under tension to store kinetic energy, providing a smooth, responsive pull that yanks the stuck vehicle free.

3. Conquer Any Terrain

Mud, snow, or sand, this recovery rope is your go-to solution for getting back on track and continuing your adventure.

Venture Fearlessly with Yankum

The VIPER Kinetic Recovery Rope isn’t just a tool; it’s the lifeline that ensures your adventures never come to a halt. Take control of your terrain with the recovery rope that’s trusted by off-roaders everywhere.

Yankum Ropes delivers extra linear force and added kinetic energy that give you the power of momentum. This rope was designed for professionals but made to serve anyone who needs an extra tug. This rope was built for lighter recreational vehicles to make sure you spend more time having fun than yanking it in the mud. It’s built to stretch and perform.

This Mil-Spec quality product is made out of the best Double Braided rope. We use our “Code Red” Polymeric coating to protect against UV, water and abrasion as well as dip the eyes in a thick, protective high-compression polymer coating to ensure extended life where it matters most. Yankum Ropes are designed for recovery.

Remember to pair the recovery rope with the recovery vehicle, NOT the stuck vehicle.

What size rope do I need?

Ropes are rated based on the weight of the vehicle doing the recovery, not the vehicle that's stuck. Taking your SXS to the rescue? You need this 5/8" rope. 

What length should I get?

The rope length just depends on the user, the terrain, and the vehicles using the ropes. We recommend a 20' if you're going to be in dense woods or rocky areas, where space is limited. And a 30' rope for wide open deserts and dunes.

What is the rope rated for?

The ropes have a 'Minimum Breaking Strength' (MBS). You then use a 'Factor of Safety'(FOS) to determine your 'Working Load Limit' (WLL). Your FOS is typically somewhere between 3 and 5, so either a 3:1, 4:1, or 5:1. You will find your working load limit by dividing the MBS by the FOS. Example:

      • 14,800 / 3 = 4,933
      • 14,800 / 4 = 3,700
      • 14,800 / 5 = 2,960

What is the proper way to store the rope?

Yankum Ropes are designed to handle a lot of tough situations, and taking good care of your rope when not in use will prolong the life of the rope. It is recommended to store your rope out of the elements and away from harsh chemicals. 

How fast should I go when performing a recovery with a kinetic rope?

Start your recovery with a very slow pull, then move to kinetic pulls. Increase speed gradually until the stuck vehicle is free, but do not exceed 5 mph. If you've reached 5 mph and the stuck vehicle hasn't moved, rethink a different way to recover. Stay safe!
