Worked out very well as a new winch for a boat lift.



by:

I have used this D-I winch to raise and lower a 10 x 10 ft platform in my workshop.
My RC airplanes are stored on it and are hoisted to the ceiling, to make room for more...
Thanks for a great service and a robust American made product [Thumbs Up]

Quick delivery and received what was or dered



by:

This is a very well built and solid winch. It is exactly what I was looking for in my application. I put it on a log arch I had welded together to lift some pretty heavy logs, and it does so with ease. The hand brake comes in very handy, and works amazingly well.



by:

Excellent. High quality. I use it to crank up my ham radio tower.



by:

I have a sailboat that I replaced the winch I use to raise and lower the 700lb swing keel. I bought this winch hoping the upgrade in lifting capacity would help. It makes a huge difference. I have to be honest, it has been so nice to use. My old winch had a little lever on it to choose the direction it would go if crancked. This new winch goes up when cranked one way and down when cranked the other. I don't have to take time to set the direction lever. The best part is when I"m lowering the keel, I just have to stop cranking and the automatic breake takes it and holds it where ever I stop. I sail up around the San Juan islands where the tide fluctuates 15 feet or more and its important that I can react quickly when I need too so I gave 5 stars.



by:

Product worked out really great thank you



by:

Solid product! Used it on my boat lift, threads and set up for the brake to work with my wheel was a challenge because the threads on my wheel are 7/8ths, threads on the shaft of winch are 5/8ths and an off set so the brake works with the handle it comes with. That being said, I fabricated up some parts and it works great. Very strong and sturdy and the cable I bought works wonderfully. Shipping was very fast and packaged good. 2nd time I have bought something through this company and I will do it again in a second if and when the need arrives. Great company, great customer based service. Thank you for your great service, other companies need to follow your model. If they do, they will be extremely successful!



by:

The order and shipment was very timely which was nice. There was not nearly enough info about the product on website, size, dimensions, etc. when package was delivered after hours at an unattended site the box was torn open on one end and pars appeared to be missing….
I’ve already gone to a [online] store and bought a better winch. I’ll put the one from y’all in my junk bin….

Winches are great just took a long time to get



by:

My review- is based on the fact that I am a 25+ year maintenance engineer, that I had replaced my Fulton brake winch with a different manufacturer. I had great concerns due to the fact that all I could use was the Dutton-Lainson info. the company provided and we all know that sometimes that is not what we end up with. Well after ordering then receiving the product in just a few days, We then installed and found out that it worked better then what was perviously installed. I am more then just pleased- more then 100% pleased! Great Product, Great Price, Great Delivery Time- no run around! Wow! - Please keep up the good work- America needs more companies like you. You are setting a high Bench Mark for others to follow. Thank You!



by:

Received my DL15721 winch VERY, VERY! fast.

I installed it on my U.S.TOWER TX-455 crank-up antenna tower. The lower attachement bolt holes where 1/16 inch too close together, but had little trouble making them work. Winch works well lifting my tri- bander and 2 meter Amateur antennas.
Only trouble, was attaching the cable to the drum as instructed ,The cable keeper is small-----or maybe my cabel is large but I got the issue taken care of. Anyway, the winch works extremely well as a replacement for the old K1550 winch , and is much easier to operate.
THANKS TO EVERYONE at ETRAILER. Service could not have been BETTER!
(will be back for any future needs)



by:

etrailer was great ! Product arrived a day early was exactly as advertised and installed easily. A couple of emails along the way confirming the order, confirming delivery and checking to make sure all was right were great. Will order from them again.

the product is OK but i'm having a issue with the handle wearing out after a short time of use. can i order parts for this winch?

Mark, Thank you for your review. The replacement handle for Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch w Automatic Brake - TUFFPLATE Finish - 2,500 lbs is part # DL70310.



by:

Didnt get the brake winch i ordered, but etrailer found a replacement that i think will work and they shipped it out right away.



by:

Better build quality than the two other brands I have used. Dutton-Lainson seems to be a good brand. eTrailer shipped the package on time at a good price.



by:

UPS lost one of my packages & etrailer.com was able to ship me another item, without any problem, so there wouldn't be any further delay.



by:

Thank you etrailer for making my shopping experience the easiest I've had in a while.
I'll send pics once our Fabrication of the Housing is complete...



by:

E trailer is the best place for trailer hardware!



by:

Impressive shipping and timely delivery. Product met and exceeded my expectations. Built well and made in USA. etrailer.com will get more of my business for sure.



by:

The winch arrived at my door very quickly. I installed the winch on one of my boat lifts. It installed with no trouble. The winch raises and lowers the lift with ease.



by:

The cable retainer on the drum that was supplied was a joke. We had to make a new retainer with stronger bolt to attach the cable. About an hours work.



by:

Customer representative was very helpful in helping us find what we were looking for; we had to do some cross references and it was shipped to us a lot sooner than we expected. We did not pay for any type of expedited service and it was at my door in two days. Product is good. Everything went great. Thanks



by:

Great winch, fast shipping



by:

Excellent winch, easily mounted, only drawback is that it is very slow due to the gearing. Lifts 2500 lbs with ease.

  • What Types of Dutton Lainson Winch Does Drill Adapter Work On
    Hey Randy, the drill adapter part # DL6456 only works with the DLB style of Dutton Lainson winches which the winch you have is not one of them. Instead you'd need a new winch like the part # DL15721 to use that adapter.

  • Availability of Winch that Can Ratchet In and Out for Boat Trailer
    Hey Scott, we do have winches that ratchet in and out like you are looking for like with the Dutton Lainson part # DL15721. This will let you feed the winch out slowly like you are wanting when letting the boat down the ramp.

  • Does Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch W/ Brake DL15721 Include A Winch Cable Or Strap?
    The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch w/ Automatic Brake - TUFFPLATE Finish - 2,500 lbs # DL15721 you were looking at does not include a cable or strap. You will need either the Hand Winch Cable with Safety Hook 5/16" Diameter x 25' Long # DL24102 or the Hand Winch Strap with Safety Hook, 2" Wide x 20' Long # DL24251. I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Brake Winch Recommendation for 4,400 lb Boat
    When picking out a winch the general rule of thumb for boat applications is that you need a ratio of 2 to 1 to determine the correct capacity. So the Dutton Lainson Brake Winch part # DL15721 would be a great option as it has a 2,500 capacity. I attached a review video for this winch for you to check out as well.

  • Winch Recommendation that Can Have Handle Installed on Either Side of it

  • Availability of Dutton Lainson Freewheel Brake Winch and Ratchet Handle for DLB-Series Winch
    We do sell the Dutton-Lainson Freewheel Brake Winch # DL15761.

The ratcheting handle for that winch is the DLB Series Brake Winch Ratcheting Replacement Handle # DL70347.

  • Recommended Brake Winch For Single Davit Boat Lift Application
    I spoke with my contact at one of our winch suppliers. They told me that for the use you described and for a single davit used on a boat lift the best winch would be a brake winch. Depending on the weight of the boat you have the brake winch I recommend the Dutton-Lainson Self-Locking Brake Winch, part # DL15721. This winch has a 2,500 lb weigh capacity and has a fully automatic brake meaning the load stays in place even when the handle is released. This winch can handle up to 34 ft of...

  • Recommendation for a Dutton Lainson Left Handed Winch with a 2,500 lb Capacity
    For a left-handed winch with a 2,500 lb capacity I would recommend you get a Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL15403. What is nice about this winch is that if you wanted to move the handle to the other side of the winch you could. I spoke with my contact at Dutton Lainson to confirm this.

  • Recommendation to Replace Shelby 5352 Brake Winch with Wheel
    The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL15721 that you referenced is a good replacement option for the Shelby 5352 in terms of size, capacity, and function but it's not an direct/exact replacement. Because Shelby winches are no longer in production I'm not able to compare the handle thread to what would be on your model. With that being said this particular winch is not compatible with a wheel like what you are currently using. For this type of application a much better option is the Dutton-Lainson...

  • Replacement Winch for Dutton Lainson DL2500A
    The Dutton Lainson winch part # DL15721 is the same as the DL2500A that you have now and has an automatic brake. This would work well for you as a replacement. Typically when picking out a winch for a boat trailer the ratio of boat trailer weight to winch capacity needed is 2 to 1 meaning that for a 4,000 lb boat like you have the minimum capacity needed would be 2,000 lbs. Since this has 2,500 lbs of capacity it would be a little more than needed which means it would be easier to crank...

  • Recommended Boat Lift Hand Winch with Brake for 3,200 lb Boat

It has the capacity to lift without issue, has the braking ability to control the release speed, and it is corrosion resistant. It comes with a 5 year manufacturer warranty.

  • Recommended Dutton-Lainson 2500 Winch For Boat Lift Wheel
    You can use a Dutton-Lainson hand winch for your boat lift, and the easiest one for lifting a 1,700 lb load will have an automatic brake, and a smaller reel hub diameter. A smaller diameter means a shorter cable, but quicker pulling speed. And while you mentioned the B-Series of winch, you may need a DLB-Series, and the reason I say that is because the right one for a boat lift wheel will depend on the internal thread in the center hub of the wheel. The B-Series will work with a boat...

  • Largest Weight Capacity Dutton-Lainson Winch Compatible With DLB Drill Socket Adapter # DL6456
    The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL15721 is their highest capacity DLB series winch with rated capacity of 2,500lbs. You would then need the Removable Handle Kit # DL6454 along with the Drill Drive Socket Adapter # DL6456 to use a drill to operate the winch. Their larger B-series 3,500LB Winch # DL24844 does not offer any type of drill adapter to operate the winch.

  • Recommended Replacement for the Shelby Trailer Winch 5409B
    The Shelby Trailer Winch 5409B is a single speed brake hand winch with a 2,100 lb capacity. It was discontinued some time ago. In order to replace this winch I recommend using the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch part # DL15721. The Dutton-Lainson winch has an automatic brake for safety, zinc coating for protection, and 2,500 lb capacity. If you also need a new wire rope to go with this winch I recommend the Hand Winch Cable with Safety Hook part # DL24102. I have attached a review video of...

For a similar winch that does allow you to use a strap we have the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL15721. This is also rated for 2,500 lbs and can be used with the Hand Winch Strap # DL24251.

  • Replacement Hand Winch for Dutton-Lainson Brake Winch
    I looked up your trailer jack info and it was a 1,600 lb hand winch that hasn't been made in quite some time. Most refer to it as a "vintage" hand winch. Sounds like you got a lot of life out of but there's nothing we offer beyond what you've already tried that's going to fix it so our best option is a new winch like the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch w/ Automatic Brake - TUFFPLATE Finish # DL14927 which is another high quality, USA made hand winch that will work really well.

  • Brake Hand Winch to Replace 1500-lb-Rated Shelby 5352
    Some Shelby winch models used a handle that secured to the winch with an Allen key. If this is the type you have then it is possible that the set screw or the post on the winch the handle attaches to is stripped or worn to the point that the handle can no longer crank the winch. While we don't have a repair kit for your Shelby 5352 winch we do have a great replacement winch to match what you have since it is a 1,500 lb brake winch. For that you'd want the Dutton Lainson 1,500 lb Winch...

  • Dimensions of Square Opening on Replacement Removable Handle Kit for Dutton-Lainson DLB-Series Winch
    Hi Bob; the square opening on the Replacement Removable Handle Kit for Dutton-Lainson DLB-Series Brake Winches # DL6454 measures 1-1/4" so it isn't an exact match. Even if it was it wouldn't attach very well to what you have as is. The best option at this point is to replace the winch with a new one like the Dutton-Lainson # DL14825 or # DL15721.

    The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL14725 referenced in your question has a freewheel design that will not actually hold a load in the forward or reverse directions. To hold a load in place you will want to go with a brake winch. For a similarly rated modeI recommend the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL15721 that features a 2,500 pound weight capacity and an automatic braking mechanism that will lock a load in place. The elongated mounting holes on the plate will allow compatibility with...
