What are solid haws ?

Hawse .. As he says, don't use a roller hawse for synthetic rope, use a solid stainless or Aluminium hawse ..

They're also called fairleads ... http://www.electricwinchshop.co.uk/winch-accessories/fairleads.html

Decent Synthetic will cost you > £300 for a decent length with decent thickness... cheap Chinese crap <150.... Steel = £40
