What sort of "rope" are we talking about????

Wire rope you are generally better off with a roller fairlead.

Plasma rope ("dynamica", etc) you are better off with a smooth fairlead.

I like the billet steel/stainless/alloy hawse fairleed plates. They look trick, strong, and wont suffer from heat markings or UV rays.
