Dependable USA made trailer winch, built to last. Perfect for medium to larger boats and many other applications. This winch is built for multi-purpose hauling and pulling operations. It is not recommended for lifting applications. For lifting, use a self-locking winch. D-L winches are not to be used as hoists for lifting, supporting, or transporting people, or for loads over areas where people could be present.
- HEAVY DUTY PULLING WINCH: This manual winch handles boat trailers, heavy equipment, and horizontal pulling applications with professional reliability.
