PEREL WHW250 Manual Winch 250 kg, Black

I bought 4 of these to use as clothes line pulleys. They are sturdier and easier to wind. I put them in nearly 2 years ago and they are still almost as good as new (a small amount or rust at this point). Great product.

Used for winding a clothes line. Works very well for this, but the winch is not designed for mounting directly to a wall as I need, so I've used an angle bracket (Toolstation part no. 44421).

Love this. I bought it for my DIY washing line. It's a long double line with bearings at each end. This winch, with a decent nylon rope/cable is perfect. It's strong for a big load of washing too. Only issue is that I had to buy a bracket to wall mount it but as it's not the intended purpose, I didn't mind so much.

Used the winch for a garden washing line using a pulley and some hooks. Keep loose to reach line and hang clothes then tighten as required to lift washing line. Winch will hold about 25m of a 4mm diameter steel washing line when wound up in the reel before touching the sides. Make sure to use only steel line for max tension as pvc coated washing line will stretch and rip coating when tense. If using a PVC coated steel washing line, cut the the pvc coat all the way around near winch whilst hooked to other end. This way the pvc coating with flex on tension rarher than split. When making the loop hook for line make sure to crimp the steel not the pvc as when tensioned the hook un clamps and washing will be on the floor next day like mine and wife will not be too happy ;)

Good value for money,performs as it should.easy to use and attach it also a manageable size not to big and clunky.wouldnt buy the clothes line with it thoughLightweight

Good solid winch did my job well

Lovely bit of kit.

These winches (I bought two) seem to be well made and work well. I was disappointed though, because they do not include a wall mounting plate, so they can't be mounted to a wall without buying extra pieces that you'll have to track down yourself. Based on other reviews with pictures/videos showing a wall mounting plate I assumed this was included, and the manual that comes with the winches references a mounting plate, but it is not included with the product. I got these delivered needing to fit them the same day, so I had a stressful couple of hours trying to bodge together a mounting solution from bits in my small local hardware store. Hopefully this review might save someone else that hassle.
