Lewmar Winch Stripper Rings - EVO 65

The Lewmar Winch Stripper Rings – EVO 65 are replacement stripper rings engineered for the Lewmar EVO 65 winch system. Sold as a pair, these components manage rope or cable as it winds onto the drum, preventing overlapping and ensuring organized, consistent spooling during both deployment and recovery operations. Proper stripper ring condition is critical for offshore and maritime applications where cable management directly impacts winch efficiency and operational safety.

The stripper rings guide rope or cable across the drum face as the winch operates, reducing friction and wear on the cable itself while preventing jams or kinks that can damage both rope and winch internals. Over time, these rings wear or develop surface degradation from constant contact with moving cable. The EVO 65 stripper rings are designed as direct-fit replacement parts (MPN 45500608P) for the EVO 65 winch platform, ensuring compatibility with the drum width and engagement geometry. Each pair is compact and lightweight, weighing just 0.3 lbs combined, making them practical for routine maintenance and field replacement aboard vessels or in remote recovery scenarios.

These replacement rings serve marine operators, offshore professionals, and maritime recovery teams who rely on Lewmar winch systems for mooring, anchoring, or heavy-load recovery work. Regular inspection and timely replacement of stripper rings extends the operational lifespan of the winch drum and cable. Operators experienced with EVO series winches recognize that worn stripper rings lead to uneven cable spooling, increased line tension, and potential cable damage—making these rings a critical wear item for any vessel or recovery operation running Lewmar EVO 65 equipment.
