    Hand Winches for Wire Rope—For Horizontal Pulling

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Winches. Hand Winches for Wire Rope—For Horizontal Pulling.
    Turn the crank to move material horizontally. These winches wind faster than precise-positioning winches.
    Note: Capacity is highest for the first layer of rope (at least five wraps of rope on the winch) and decreases as each additional layer of rope is wound on the winch.
    2 Speeds—Winches with two speeds wind quickly in high gear and more easily in low gear than single-speed winches.

    Handle

    These winches are designed for occasional use. An automatic brake holds the load when the handle is released. To lift, mount winches above the load or use winches with a pulley that's mounted above the load.
    Note: Capacity is highest for the first layer of rope (at least five wraps of rope on the winch) and decreases as each additional layer of rope is wound on the winch.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
    Enclosed Gears—Enclosed gears offer protection from dirt and debris.
    Left-Side Handle—Winches with a left-side handle are more comfortable for left-handed users to operate, and can be used in spaces where right-side handles can’t fit.
    Right- or Left-Side Handle—Winches with a right- or left-side handle are convertible, letting you easily switch between your left and right hand.

    One-piece gears provide more durability than the riveted gears of other hand winches. These winches move loads more gradually than standard hand winches. They take longer to wind but require less effort.
    Note: Capacity is highest for the first layer of rope (at least five wraps of rope on the winch) and decreases as each additional layer of rope is wound on the winch.

    Hand Winches for Webbing—For Horizontal Pulling

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Winches. Hand Winches for Webbing—For Horizontal Pulling.
    Webbing wraps neatly around the winch to prevent tangles in the line.
    Ratchet handle pumps up and down rather than turning completely around the winch and is good for tight spaces.
    Note: Capacity is highest for the first layer of webbing (at least five wraps of webbing on the winch) and decreases as each additional layer of webbing is wound on the winch.
    2 Speeds—Winches with two speeds wind quickly in high gear and more easily in low gear than single-speed winches.

    Fully-Enclosed Body

    Tackle frequent lifting jobs with these rugged winches—their one-piece machined gears stand up to daily use. An automatic brake holds the load when the handle is released. To lift, mount winches above the load or use winches with a pulley that's mounted above the load.
    Note: Capacity is highest for the first layer of rope (at least five wraps of rope on the winch) and decreases as each additional layer of rope is wound on the winch.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
