Specs:
This multipurpose utility winch is perfect for light-duty pulling jobs. You can mount it in your truck bed to load logs, deer, or other objects. Mount it to a trailer to pull ATVs, golf carts, or other vehicles. Or mount it in your garage or workshop to pull in vehicles, engines, tires, or other parts. The compact design fits easily into tight spaces, and the hand-held remote has leads that transmit power from your battery to the winch. A built-in plate with hardware lets you easily mount the winch directly to a stable surface. The dynamic brake prevents unintentional rope payout, and the free-spool clutch lets you pull out the wire rope by hand.
This winch features a 1.0-horsepower, 12-volt DC motor with 2,000 lbs of line pull. The permanent magnet motor offers the same line-pulling power and speed as a series-wound motor of comparable size, but it's lighter and uses less current. The motor and gearbox are side-mounted together as a single unit. This compact unit is constructed of corrosion-resistant materials including the powder coated steel housing, copper battery terminals, and zinc-plated steel hardware. Built-in drain holes in the housing release the water created by motor heat to prevent internal moisture build-up.
The free-spool clutch enables you to pull out the rope by hand. This saves battery power, prevents the brake from wearing down prematurely, reduces wear on the motor, and is much faster than waiting for the drum to unroll the rope. To release the clutch for free-spooling simply pull out the hard plastic knob and rotate it 90 degrees so that the pins on the shaft rest against the catch. To reengage the clutch, rotate the knob 90 degrees and push it back in.
The clutch is driven by a single-stage planetary gear train. This provides more speed than traditional worm gear drives.
The dynamic brake uses resistance from the winch motor to control line speed. When the winch is pulling the rope in there is no resistance on the drum. As you start to slow the pull with the hand-held remote the motor slows the drum's rotation. When the power is stopped the drum does not turn and the load is held in place.
Since there is no physical brake device the winch is lighter and has a smaller profile than winches with a mechanical braking system. This makes it easier to mount in places with limited space available.
The hand-held, plastic remote has a relay switch inside that transmits power from your vehicle's battery to the winch. The 6' lead connects the remote to your battery, and the 4' lead connects the remote to your winch. These leads can be switched if you need to operate the winch from a greater distance.
The remote also has 2 knobs on the front that let you power the rope in and out.
The wire rope is made of a high-strength, aircraft-grade galvinized steel that is abrasion resistant and able to withstand harsh UV rays, chemicals, and extreme temperatures.
The rope winds around a solid steel drum. The mounting flanges are strong enough to resist bending or breaking if the rope wrap becomes uneven and excess stress is put on the drum.
A hand-saver strap is also included to use in conjunction with work gloves (BDW20070 - sold separately) so that you can safely handle the rope and hook. A rock bag (BDW20048 - sold separately) is recommended for added protection. The rock bag helps prevent a broken rope from snapping back if it breaks by forcing it to the ground.
The hook attaches directly to the end of the wire rope with a stainless steel tube thimble. The hook is constructed of high-strength forged alloy steel that is heavy duty and rust resistant. It has a spring-loaded safety latch for quick fastening and removal.
This winch is constructed of strong, durable materials that are able to withstand any weather condition or terrain. The motor and gearbox housing is made of corrosion-resistant powder coated steel and is sealed to keep water out. The side frame drum supports help to create a strong and rigid winch body.
This versatile winch has an integrated mounting plate that makes it easy to install on your truck bed, trailer, workbench, garage floor, or nearly any other stable surface. The compact design also makes it easy to mount in tight spaces.
This winch is best used for straight line pulls since it doesn't include a fairlead to guide the rope onto the drum. An additional mounting plate (sold separately) is required if you want to use a roller fairlead (BDW20055 - sold separately). You can also use a pulley block (BDW20004 - sold separately) to change the direction of the pull if a pull at an extreme angle is required.
The hand-held remote has a 6' lead that transmits power from the vehicle's battery to an internal relay switch and a 4' lead that transmits power from the relay switch to the winch motor. These leads can be switched if you need to operate the winch from a greater distance. You can use quick connects (BDW20047 - sold separately) to quickly connect and disconnect power to the winch.
| Layers of Rope | Capacity (lbs) | Total Rope on Drum (ft) |
|---|---|---|
| 1st Layer | 2,000 | 6-1/2 |
| 2nd Layer | 1,630 | 14 |
| 3rd Layer | 1,380 | 23-1/2 |
| 4th Layer | 1,190 | 35 |
| 5th Layer | 1,050 | 47 |
| 6th Layer | 940 | 50 |
The line pull capacity of your winch is determined by the maximum load your winch can pull with a single layer of rope on the drum. As more layers of rope are wound onto the drum, pulling the same load requires more force, leading to a loss in winching power. With a 2nd layer of rope around the drum, your line pull capacity is reduced by approximately 14 percent. With 3 layers on the drum, the line pull capacity is reduced by approximately 23 percent, and with 4 layers on the drum it is reduced by approximately 35 percent.
Note: It is recommended that you begin any line pull with a minimum of 5 wraps and a maximum of 2 layers of rope on the drum.
| Percent Incline | Rolling Load Capacity (lbs) |
|---|---|
| Level Surface | 20,000 |
| 5 (3°) | 13,340 |
| 10 (6°) | 10,040 |
| 20 (11°) | 6,800 |
| 30 (17°) | 5,220 |
| 50 (26°) | 3,720 |
| 70 (35°) | 3,060 |
| 100 (45°) | 2,580 |
To calculate your winch's rolling load capacity - the amount of weight it can pull up an incline - you must multiply the line pull capacity by a factor determined by the degree of the incline.
The multiplication factors shown in the chart, right, include a 10-percent rolling friction factor.
Note: A 5-percent - or 3-degree - incline is a 1/2' rise over a 10' distance. Follow the chart to determine your winch's rolling load capacity.
Increase the pulling capacity or change the angle of pull of your winch by doubling up the rope with a pulley block (BDW20004 - sold separately). Secure the pulley block to the vehicle being pulled with a bow shackle (BDW20006 - sold separately) to provide a strong anchor for your double-line pull. Using double-line operation will approximately double your winch's pulling capacity.

Great customer service
Arrived, looks great! Installing tomor row.
Great customer service! Patient and knowledgeable. Well Done Kaylyn!
Fast service, good prices.
Like the 100 foot steel line and remote control with 100 foot range.
I am very pleased with the folks at ETrailer Corp. Thier professionalism and follow up is much more than I have received from other companies. The products I have bought from them go far beyond my expectations.
only using it to move boat/pontoon lifts and docks. Works great, more than enough power. Easy set-up and no problems.
very happy with the winch and mount, instructions were easily understood and the finished product was all it was said to be. will continue to deal with this business as they are professionals.
GREAT WINCH FOR THE PRICE-
