Hand Winch for Floating Dock that Can Accept 3/8 inch Wire Rope
Published 02/03/2022 >
Question:
I am looking for a manual winch for my floating dock. I need one that will hold a 3/8 wire rope. As the lake level varies quite a bit, the main concern is capacity as well as strength. Can you recommend a winch for my application? Thank You,

The Dutton Lainson hand winch part # DL15440 accepts a 3/8 inch winch rope like you are in need of, is 2 speed, and has a 3,800 lb weight capacity as well so it would work great for your floating dock.
