Video Transcript for Jif Marine Trailer Winch - Standard Hand Winch - 315-W2000D Review

Speaker 1: Today we're gonna take a look at the single speed boat trailer winch with the 20-foot strap and the snap hook. Now this is a manual hand-winch that'll mount to your truck or your trailer to ease loading or unloading of your ATVs, boats and heavy equipment. Uses a two-way ratcheting mechanism right here, allows for simple tightening or loosening of the strap, so with the ratchet pole right now in the up position, or the forward position, it'll allow the crank to turn clockwise and as you turn the crank clockwise, it'll allow the strap to come in. If you put the ratchet pole on the down, or the reverse position, then you can see it allows that crank to turn counter-clockwise and when you do that allows the strap to line out.Now you can also take this pole and put it in the neutral position and that'll allow the drum to freewheel for a quick line payout. You can see that it's pretty much freewheeling. It does use a self-locking crank to ensure security while in use.It is a single speed operation so it offers increased mechanical advantage to pull heavy items, has a gear ratio of 4.1:1 and what that gear ratio means that for every ...

to rotate this drum one revolution takes 4.1 revolutions of the handle.It does use a heat-treated high carbon steel gear to ensure strength. It is zinc plated for corrosion resistance. It is designed for use with a winch strap or steel cable. This comes with a 20-foot black polyester strap with the snap hook all included. If you notice on the handle at the very end here it has a nice comfort grip to ensure secure hold on the handle.This winch is SAE certified.

A few measurements on this. The handle length, which is measured from the center here to the center there, is gonna be right at 8". The drum storage is 20-foot long strap, 2" wide strap. The hub diameter that the strap goes on of the hub, is 11/16", and the capacity on this is 2,000 pounds.But again, just to show you, if you put it in the down position, right there, then you can see as you crank it it'll let the strap come out, and if you're ready to bring it back in, all you have to do is flip it into the up position and then the crank will go clockwise and then it brings your line in. So pretty easy to use winch.But that should do it for the review on the single speed boat trailer winch with the 20-foot strap..
