This Winch is being used on a 50' crank-up tower. Its holding about 350 lbs now for a year. The two tower crank up sections, a ten foot mast of 1-1/4" conduit on top of a antenna rotator with a 26' boom 4 element 3 band beam antenna, a vertical 2 meter antenna, a Sloper antenna, and 3 coaxes and a rotor control cable and grounding. All supported by this winch. Good Job.

This winch performs even better than expected. In the photo you will see the two I have ordered from etrailer. The one on the right easily raises a 50 foot crank up mast from 20 feet to 50 feet vertically (3 nested sections) with a 150 pound antenna load at the top, with no issues using only a battery powered hand drill. The winch on the left will also enable me to tilt the entire tower over horizontally to the ground for servicing (over 400 total pounds) and then raise it back up vertically using the same hand drill. The worm drive gearing is excellent.
by: Joe01/25/2024
The product is exactly as described and works great. The quality of the product is excellent and it arrived well lubricated. While etrailer shipped the part on time USPS lost the the winch and once it was determined that the first winch was lost etrailer shipped a replacement which arrived in 2 days.

looks like a nice unit
by: Joe W07/03/2020
Installed this winch into the front of my 20ft enclosed trailer. The winch is for the rare occasion that a vehicle or my tractor that I move with the trailer doesn't start. I tested the winch out with my 3000lb tractor and it pulled it up the ramp with ease using my cordless drill & 5/5 socket on the winch. My trailer has an aluminum frame so I was careful to protect it from dissimilar metal corrosion where the steel bolts touch the aluminum. With a snatch block doubling the winch capacity, this winch would easily pull anything into the trailer that will fit in it. You wouldn't want to do it without the cordless drill though... I am very pleased with the purchase. Jameson assisted me with all my questions.

This Dutton-Lainson worm gear winch made a great 1-man tool for hoisting and storing the camper shell for my pickup, using wire rope and pulleys. I use a cordless drill to operate the worm-drive winch. These are great products from etrailer.
by: James 10/06/2023
I am very impressed with the operation and durability of these worm gear winches. I've been raising and lowering platforms weighing between 300 and 1500 lbs through a 4 1/2 foot range (pulleys) with confidence and without issue. For heavier lifting, I use a corded 8.0 amp drill to speed the process. I have used the manual handle as well but it is very slow given the long length of synthetic rope (~15') I pull. It's a great emergency option for me.
by: Walter Z04/18/2014
Here is a picture made by combining two photos so both myself and my wife are depicted as we cooked a kettle of beans. It shows how the Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch enables the safe and easy adjustment of elevation for regulating the rate of boiling in a cast iron kettle suspended above our fire pit. I ordered a second wench to make a similar system for a granddaughter who does much cooking over wood fire.
by: Gerard 01/02/2024
We use these in a product we make so we've bought over 100 units. Our products are indoors so they are in a nice climate controlled environment. Our oldest products have been out there 15 years and done hundreds of in/out's and we've never had a problem or issue with any.
by: William10/31/2019
We removed these typical style winches and installed the worn gear winches in their place. I would like to attach a video showing it in action, but this site does not allow for that. Heavy duty appears to be very durable! We are using a Milwaukee 18 volt drill for raising and lowering our deer feeders. We currently have 23 of them in place. You will have to keep the drive oiled and the gear greased. Would love to see the drive gear with bearings.

Great Service, quick delivery, and quality product
by: Cliff02/20/2015
Product met my expectations. I couldn't operate my hand crank winch. these I use my electric drill and it does the work for me.
Shipping was outstanding usually free shipping you wonder what month it is going to come. This was beyound expectations. I'm using it on a drop down trailer my ice fishing house is on.

great support and ser vice
by: Kevin09/18/2020
Fantastic product. I use it to raise and lower my 60' rohn 25g tower. With being able to use a drill & 5/8 socket it goes up and down fast.
by: Donald04/07/2020
This winch works great on my feeder lifts 350lbs no problem. This is my second one no more cranking.

Works great have one on both my fenders. No more cranking by hand.
by: Michael 05/28/2023
Will use it to pull upright piano up a ramp onto a trailer, pickup truck or porch. I will mount the winch on one end of a 2x6 and fasten the other end to the top of the ramp. I have another one by Maxxhaul and the quality of this DL winch seems much better, and I like that it's made here in the USA.
by: Dwight04/30/2018
I have modified worm drive hand winches to accept a socket and they worked but apparently the gears were not hardened and would wear quickly even though I greased them thoroughly. This winch has hardened gears and the meshing of the two gears looks to be more precise. I searched everywhere and etrailer had the best price and free shipping. Haven't installed this winch yet but I'm pretty sure it will out-last the discount hardware store winch, many times over. Also I learned, Don't spin the drill fast because the gears will overheat causing wear. Slow and steady is much better than cranking by hand!!!!!!!!

The winch is a year old and has shown No signs of wear!!! A huge difference in reliability over the cheaper winch I had previously installed. Great Quality winch, Period!!!!!!
by: Moose12/17/2016
Bought this hoist about a year ago to raise our kayaks out of the way in the garage. The hoist is high quality, relatively inexpensive, and has performed flawlessly. I especially like that it is a worm gear design meaning you can stop at any time and it will not try to unwind. Also, this particular one is designed with a socket drive; so, I can use my electric drill to raise and lower the kayaks. Etrailer has all the good stuff and is my go-to place for mechanical equipment.

The winch continues to work well after a year. The design and quality is much admired by all who see the set-up.
by: Frederick04/16/2020
I needed a hand winch that will handle a 1000 lb lift for a one of a kind antique engine lift.This winch with the worm drive is ideal for this application. The hex drive will allow for a faster lift with a power drill motor. It is well made by a ISO 9001 certified USA company. Shipping was prompt and price was reasonable. I feel confident whenever I order from etrailer that the merchandise is of the best quality.

The winch works great. The worm drive provides the mechanical advantage that i needed to make the lift safe to operate.
by: Tim 09/14/2018
Great winch. You can count on it to work and work safely. Unlike the dangerous Harbour Freight one it replaced. I use it with a cordless drill attached to a crane, to lift my motorcycle in and out of the bed of my truck. I also used it, anchored to another crane to lift my barn trusses onto my barn. If you use it with the crank it will move slowly, but works quickly with the cordless drill. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Great, no complaints
by: Jim04/12/2022
After one year: Very well made - I sprayed the cable I got with it - with lithium grease and after being outdoors for most of the year on my trailer it looks like new still! The worm gear set up with my high speed Milwaukee Fuel hammer drill (great torque - pro drill) works great.I use it to haul a small drift boat up and down steep inclines (drift boat for rivers - fishing) and it works well. I also added corrosion X grease to all of the winch's moving parts - New England weather is a good test for it.
by: John D08/14/2019
This winch has a lot of power, very smooth operation. It works great with my 1/2in battery powered drill. cable always winds perfect and tangle free. I use it to pull my 16ft jon boat out of the water on a makeshift ramp. the boat and motor is around 1000 lbs. its a very high quality winch and its made in the USA.
by: Chris08/06/2019
Great product. It is very convenient that the worm drive is self braking. A bit slow because of it though. Detachable handle is handy when you need it out of the way. We set up a 5/8 socket on a wiggle wrench for faster movement.

Worked great fro 10 months under a significant load and use 20-40 times a day.
by: David01/27/2013
The packaging was a little funky. There was grease on the instructions. There was not a clear way for the cable to get tied to the spool (for someone that doesn't deal with this everyday). It wasn't hard to figure out how to attach the cable; I don't know if I did it right, but it works. Bottom line: The product is as good as it depicts, and with the drill attachment, life is good and easy... Just what the winch was designed to do. etrailer.com was great!

- Can the Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch with Hex Drive # DL11001 Be Mounted VerticallyYes, the Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch with Hex Drive # DL11001 that you referenced could be mounted vertically like on the post that you referenced. I attached a review video for this winch for you to check out. For cable you might also be interested in the Hand Winch Cable with Safety Hook # DL24104.
view full answer... - Recommended Hand Winch For Hoisting Piece of Steel SculptureYou're certainly on the right track. The handle on a worm gear winch would indeed rotate in such a way that it wouldn't hit the tree. A worm gear also has the advantage of not freewheeling when you let go of the handle, so the load won't get away from you. The Dutton-Lainson # DL10974 worm gear winch you mentioned is a good choice, but the one problem with worm gear winches is the gear ratio. 40:1 is a common gear ratio for a worm gear winch. This means that the handle will need to be...
view full answer... - Worm Gear Winch Recommendation for RIB Inflatable Dingy on a YachtFor a worm gear winch that you can use with a strap instead of a cable I recommend # DL11002. You could then use strap # DL24242. You will need to add the hex shaft, # DL406102, in place of the standard shaft to use a variable speed drill with the winch. Worm gear winches are slow and you are bound to get tired moving the load even a few feet so a drill is the way to go. Your 18 volt drill should be more than enough to lift the load. I do not recommend an impact driver because it is likely...
view full answer... - Weight Capacity of Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL11001 Using 1/4 Inch Cable I do have a solution for you, however the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL11004 referenced in your question is actually designed for use with a polyester strap and not cable. For the Dutton-Lainson 2,000 pound hex gear hand winch that uses cable you will want part # DL11001 instead. This winch can definitely be used with 1/4 inch cable and the drum can handle up to 59 feet of it. I spoke with my contact at Dutton-Lainson and did verify that the drum hub diameter is 1-1/4 inches and on its...
view full answer... - Will the Dutton Lainson Worm Gear Winch # DL11001 Lift a Dock Out of the WaterThe Dutton Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch, # DL11001, can lift up to 2,000 lbs, so it should have no problem lifting your dock out of the water, assuming the dock does not weigh more than 2,000 lbs. This winch also comes with a hex head drive that will allow your husband to use a variable speed drill to lift the dock rather than cranking the winch by hand. Winches are not designed to keep a load suspended for extended periods of time. If the dock is going to be suspended during the winter,...

- Does Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch Come With Cable?The Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch # DL11001 does not come with the steel cable. That would have to be purchased separately; the winch can hold up to 59 feet of 9/32 inch cable. I've added a video review of this winch for you to take a look at.
view full answer... - Availability of Replacement Pin for Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear WinchYes, you will want part # DL205246, which is the replacement pin for the Dutton-Lainson worm gear winch # DL11001.
view full answer... - Recommended Dutton-Lainson Freewheeling Brake Winch 1500 lbs. # DL14996I have a recommendation for you, but unfortunately we do not have a Worm-Gear Hand Winch that has a free wheel option. The closest winch we offer to fit your needs is the Dutton-Lainson Freewheeling Brake Winch with TuffPlate Finish # DL14996. This winch is self locking, has a weight capacity of 1,500 lbs. and has a free wheel option. The handle sits on the side and is not reversible. It does need at least 75 lbs. for this winch to operate properly and the handle is included with this...
view full answer... - What is Safe Weight Capacity of Dutton Lainson Winch # DL11001The safe weight capacity for the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL11001 that you referenced is 2,000 lbs. As long as you stay under that weight you'd have nothing to worry about. These are rated somewhat conservatively so that you'd never have an issue if you stay under capacity, but you don't ever want to exceed 2,000 lbs with this winch.
view full answer... - Recommended Boat Lift Winch For a 1,600LB Boat That Can Be Operated With a Cordless DrillI recommend the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL11001 for your lift. This winch is rated for 2,000lbs and offers a removable handle. The removable handle uses a 5/8" socket which can easily be fitted to a cordless drill. You will need a drill adapter that will fit your 5/8" socket and your cordless drill. I highly recommend staying away from the cordless impact drills as the impacts will lead to both the rounding of the socket and damage to the gears.
view full answer... - Recommended Brake Winch for 16-Foot Car Hauler TrailerThe best type of hand winch for your car trailer application is a brake winch. These provide a self-locking holding action to prevent a runaway load. Their planetary gears deliver easy and efficient cranking. A good option is the Fulton High Performance Hand Winch # F143100. This is rated for 1500-lbs, but it will be fine for your rolling load. If you prefer a heavier-duty winch consider the 2K-rated Dutton-Lainson # DL11001 and the cable/hook part # DL24100. Any winch must be installed...
view full answer... - Does the Dutton Lainson DL11001 Hand Winch Come with Cable IncludedThe Dutton Lainson Hand Winch # DL11001 does not come with cable/wire included and can fit a few different cable diameter sizes: 7/32", 1/4" and 9/32". You can add winch cable like the Hand Winch Cable with Safety Hook 1/4" Diameter x 50' Long - 3,500 lbs # DL24104, which would be my recommendation for this winch and will give you just about the maximum length 1/4" cable that can be used (59 ft is the maximum for 1/4" diameter cables).
view full answer... - Does Worm Gear Winch # DL11001 have a Minimum Weight RequirementNo, there is no minimum amount of weight required for worm gear winches such as # DL11001. I have linked a video review of this winch for you.

For a 50 foot cable to use with this you could use the part # DL24104.

The only hand winches we offer that can be powered by a drill are the worm gear winches like part # DL11001. This has a hex drive, and you can use a 5/8" socket to operate the winch. You can use this with the Winch Cable # DL24104. I do not have a way to look up you camper to confirm whether or not this will fit, so I have attached a diagram with some dimensions below for your reference.
view full answer... - Winch for Lifting and Suspending 2,000 lb LoadThe Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch # DL24962 is designed for straight pulling and not really vertical pulling. Even if you were to mount it on a wall so the vertical pull would technically be a straight pull the winch wouldn't be able to suspend a load. Instead you need a winch that is designed to suspend a heavy load like that. For your application you need a worm gear hand winch. These operate much slower and are hand cranks (although you can connect a power drill) but they...

The brake function is when the cranking is stopped the reel automatically stops. It can be cranked in reverse. There is no free wheel mode, so to it will have to cranked in reverse to let out the cable. The handle has a hex drive so a 1/2 inch variable speed drill can be used to speed up the cranking process. It has a weight capacity of 2,000 lbs. The cable you will need for the hand...

For that I recommend using worm gear winch # DL11001 which does have a hex drive and you can use a 5/8 inch socket attachment to power the load in or out. Worm gear winches are brake winches so when you stop turning the drum, either with the handle or a drill, it will hold the load. There is also no minimum load required.

- Does Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch # DL11001 Come with a CableDutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL11001 does not come with a cable because they want to leave the options open for people to choose the size and length that works best for them. As-is this winch can accept a 7/32 inch cable up to 82 feet long or a 1/4 inch cable up to 59 feet long. For 7/32 inch we have: Wire rope # FWC7500100 rated for 5,600 pounds and it is 50 feet long Wire rope # DL24045 rated for 2,500 pounds and it is also 50 feet long Wire rope # DL24047 rated for 2,500 pounds and...

I do have a worm gear winch that would work for you, part # DL11001. The winch has a 49 foot drum capacity for cable up to 9/32 of an inch. Since that's a tad larger than a 1/4 inch, your 50 feet of rope would fit. In lieu of the handle, you could use a heavy duty variable speed drill with a 5/8 inch socket. This would make raising an lowering the...

The winch worked well for the time it was in service. The telescoping radio tower it was used on was destroyed by a storm in March 8 of this year, so it is currently not in service.
