Ideal for pulling a rolling load on an incline where there is concern of a runaway load during the descent
Designed for commercial use with heavy gauge material, wide gear contact and thick zinc plating
Large drum diameter providing minimum 10:1 wire rope to drum ratio allowing easier rope wrapping and extended rope life
Can be supplied modified for use with webbing strap

In lifting applications it is a legal requirement to use a wire rope with a minimum factor of safety of 5:1. The maximum diameter of the rope that can be used on each model is shown in the table above and is determined by the ratio of rope to drum diameter
Winch rating and maximum mechanical rating is based on the first layer of rope on the drum. The capacity reduces by approximately 10% for each extra layer of rope on the drum
K series winches do not include a freespool
The mechanical force required to achieve the Maximum rated line pull is approximately 18kg
Always select a winch model that will be operating well within its maximum capacity to ensure easy operation and safety
For maximum efficiency use only the amount of wire rope on the drum required for the application plus 2.5m
A minimum of 5 wraps of wire rope must be maintained on the drum at all times
