Spoolpro® Sleeves

Spoolpro® sleeves have been hugely popular with hundreds already fitted. Installing a sleeve is a fast and affordable way to adopt 3D’s unique lagging technology and it extends the life of aging drums.

Forestry, Civil, Marine and MORE

The forestry industry was the first to adopt Spoolpro® technology, initially to improve safety. It’s since been proven to reduce downtime and extend the life of wire rope and it’s fast becoming industry standard. Civil and marine industries have also adopted Sppolpro® Drums & Sleeves for lifting bridges and slipways.
3D welcomes enquiries from any industry that uses winch machines. Minimising downtime and increasing longevity is a universal goal that Spoolpro® technology can have a big impact on.

  • “We’re very impressed with it,” says Ross. “It’s a particularly good product and it’s a painless exercise to install. I can’t say enough about it. Everything about it is very user-friendly.”

    Ross Wood of Wood Contracting Group

  • "The difference, well, you can’t compare. The rope wear is next to nothing and we’ve had them for over a year now."
