Will this cut 1/4 inch braided cable that is on an ATV winch?

Although I've had no need to cut this type/size cable I believe this cutting bladecan do the job. Slow and easy is the approach. If you haven't already done the job,you may need to use more than one cutting wheel. They do tend to wear downrather quickly. Usual safety precautions apply.Peteshows

I gave this item as a gift to my son. I asked him regarding your question and he said he doesn't think it is strong enough to cut thru cable that thick. Hope it helps.

I have used it to cut braided cable of smaller diameter, which it does just fine. So, I would suspect it would cut quarter inch cable, but would take longer to do so. You probably already know to do this, but, before cutting, it is helpful to wrap electrician's tape around the cable on either side of the cut, to reduce fraying. Good luck.

The winch cables are quite long about 4 feet I would guess they go to a relay then the battery so if you mount the relay infront of the battery they should work just fine. its a nice set up Duane from Yakima Wa

I recommend having the pull cord served in to your cable. Looking at a pic of the Razor Edge, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Al; The snatch block will handle 1/4 to 1/2 inch cable. I use it with 3/8 inch cable from a 10k winch. Easy to use and very well built. NOTE! Keep it lubed!

My winch wasn't listed eather. I looked at the wireing harness and decided it would work so Ibought one. It works great.

Probably not. The cable I used with these clips is 1/4" wide and it was a tight fit into the clip.

my husband said yes it would but to take your time and if it starts heating up to stop and let it cool off then finish. he has cut 1/4 inch with no problem or heating up.

no. and you probably wouldn't want it to, since the amps and the horsepower could not support heavy materials that require a 1/2 inch router bit. i'm guessing the motor would fri. you can however use router bits that are 1/2 inch in diameter also have a 1/4 inch collet.

The wire wheel has a 3/4" face. I own a Dewalt unit so I can't answer if it will fit the Porter-Cable with any certainty but have a suspicion it will work fine.

It will but 1\4" drill bits with a 1\8th shank are expensive. Especially quality ones.

Not sure, but 1/4" is pretty big. The teeth will likely take the shoots, but I don't know if there is enough power to cut through them. Depends on how brittle they are. I have corded version for these kinds of jobs.

The micro cutters will easily give you a precision cut on braided fishing line, I have used them to trim braided nylon, braided silica wicks, Kanthal wire from 28 to 32 gauge without having to re-trim due to fraying. The tool works very well.

It does not work with 1/16 " cable. I have tried and it definitely does not work!

I tried it on some small trees and found it would not grip on them. I think if the tree is big enough for this tool to work the ATV would not be able to pull it.

Yes, there is a metal core in the cable housing so you will need a cut off tool or a hacksaw.

No, its too wide, you cant only crimp the bare cable, itll grab the cover tabs. You need 1/4" wide yaws and these are 3/8" or 7/16" wide.

yes - but it takes getting use to - I've cut/trimmed TV coax cables with this tool & it took a lot of practiceand cable pieces to get it where I wanted it - try it on scrap pieces first - Don't risk your main cable until you get use to it
