Question:
Hi, just wondering if this item DL14934 makes a ratcheting noise at all, or if its silent? I want to purchase a self braking cable winch that does NOT make the ratchet noise. Thank you Dan

Expert Reply:
The only brake winch style that would not make the ratcheting sound you are referring to is a worm gear winch. For a similarly rated winch to the # DL14934 that you referenced you would want the Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch # DL10950.
I attached a review video for this winch plus an FAQ on winches for you to check out.
