FEATURES

Maximum Grip –

 The drum’s gripping surface is designed 

specifically to work with the drum diameter and material to 

maximize gripping power and reduce rope wear. Diagonal 

ribs stop the rope from rising (keeping rope wraps on part 

of drum where you have the best control), prevent 

overrides, and provide a smooth controlled release as rope 

exits the winch.
Spring-loaded, self-tailing jaws adjust under rope pressure 

to accept a variety of rope diameters. Teeth grip evenly 

with or without load.

Lightweight –

 overall weight only 7kg 

Powerful –

 2-speed gearing allows optimum use of 

manpower to deliver power and speed.

Reliable & Easy to Maintain –

 Composite roller 

bearings and bushings don’t require lubrication and have excellent corrosion resistance.  This ‘metal-

replacement’ material is completely non-reactive to saltwater and most chemicals, and has very good wear 

and abrasion resistance under maximum operating loads.
Load-carrying gears and pins are 17-4PH stainless steel for strength and durability.
Planetary gears are bronze to avoid stainless-on-stainless galling.
Winches can be disassembled and serviced where mounted.

Easy Line Control

 - Locking jaws hold loaded rope securely during operation and while suspended. The 

stripper arm is shaped to smoothly feed the rope in and out of the jaws so the operator can use both hands 

to turn the winch. The stripper arm adjusts to multiple positions after the winch is mounted so rope exit 

position can be optimized.

SPECIFICATIONS

Maximum Working Load:

 

 

Winch: 500 kg  

Break Load:

 2800 kg

DESCRIPTION

Lightweight CE certified portable winch, mounted on an adaptor place.

The winch can be utilized in many applications; from utility masts, telecoms, marine, wind-turbine transition piece, 

davits, stage and theatre rigging.

The adaptor plate can be affixed in a number of ways, dependant on the environment and industry; from ratchet 

straps, M10 bolts, karabiners, to scaffold clamps.  This makes for a truly universal and adaptable lifting solution.

Specifications

WARNING! 

Subjecting the winch to loads above the maximum working load can cause the winch to  

fail or pull off the mounting plate suddenly, possibly resulting in severe injury or death.
