Lewmar Winch Stripper Rings - EVO 30/40

The Lewmar Winch Stripper Rings – EVO 30/40 are OEM replacement stripper rings designed specifically for Lewmar's EVO 30 and EVO 40 winch systems. These rings manage rope tension and prevent overwrapping during operation, making them essential wear items for anyone running these popular marine winches. Sold as a complete pair, they restore proper line control and protect your winch mechanism from damage caused by misaligned or tangled rope loads.

Stripper rings in EVO-series winches function as critical contact points where rope passes under load. Over time, extended salt-air exposure and continuous use cause these rings to wear, groove, or develop sharp edges that can fray modern synthetic line. The EVO 30/40 specification confirms compatibility with both the mid-range EVO 30 and the larger-capacity EVO 40 models—two of Lewmar's most deployed winch platforms across recreational and commercial vessels. Replacement during regular service prevents rope damage and maintains consistent line feed through each wrap cycle, directly protecting your investment in quality rope.

Owners maintaining their own deck equipment or working with marine technicians should keep EVO stripper rings in stock. Worn rings become obvious during operation—fraying synthetic line, uneven rope seating, or visible grooves in the ring surface—and replacement takes minutes. This is preventive maintenance that costs far less than repairing rope damage or dealing with rope jamming during critical moments on the water. The compact 3 × 1 × 3–inch dimensions and lightweight 0.1–pound profile make these rings easy to store and install without specialized tools or downtime.
