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.

Today we're going to take a look at the TowSmart Zinc Plated Trailer Winch with the 20 foot long strap and a 1,500 pound weight capacity, how this two-way manual ratcheting winch makes loading and unloading your boat very easy. This hand winch will mount to your truck or trailer to ease the loading of ATVs, boats, and heavy equipment. It uses a two-way ratcheting mechanism that allows for simple tightening or loosening of the strap. The self-locking crank will ensure security while in use, and the two-way is the ratchet pawl up like this allows your handle to crank clockwise, which will bring the strap in.Then if you take this ratchet pawl and move it down then it will allow the handle to crank counterclockwise, so it will let the strap go out. Again, it's self-locking crank, when you let it go it does lock into place. The winch itself is a nice zinc plating.
It resists rust and corrosion. It makes it ideal for marine applications. This winch is designed to use a winch strap and it does come with the 20 foot long black strap with the steal hook and the keeper right here.On the handle itself, it has a nice comfort grip to it to ensure a secure hold on the handle when you're cranking it. Fuse dimensions on this, the strap itself is two inches wide, 20 feet long, maximum capacity is 1,500 pounds. The handle length, which will be measured from the center here to the center here, is going to be right at seven inches.
The gear ratio on this winch is 4.1 to 1, and what that tells you is to get one revolution of this drum it takes 4.1 turns of the crank. The hub diameter that the strap is on is five-eighths inch diameter, and again the capacity is 1,500 pounds.But again, just to show you, we have the ratchet pawl down, so what that means, it's going to go counterclockwise, which will let the strap come out. And if we put the ratchet pawl in the up position, that will let you go clockwise, which you can see will bring the, hold it there, there we go, bring the strap in towards the drum. But that should do it for the review on the TowSmart Zinc Plated Trailer Winch with a 20 foot strap and a 1,500 pound weight capacity.
