Question:
What size cable is recommended for a minimum of 50foot length for DL 11011 worm drive winch
asked by: Steve S
Expert Reply:
I spoke with my contact at Dutton-Lainson and she said the recommended cable for this winch is 1/4 inch x 43 ft cable, but you could use a 7/32 inch x 50 ft cable, # DL24045, with the Worm Gear Hand Winch, # DL11011, without sacrificing the weight capacity of the winch.
You will notice that the weight capacity on this cable is 2,500 lbs, but you will still be limited to the 1,500 lb weight capacity of the winch.
