600 lb. Trailer Winch

Mounted two winches on two fence posts to crank up and down one 24 foot by 24 foot pool sunshade. Winch has locking clamp when ratcheting cable up and release latch for lowering cable..black in color and sturdy.would have liked the handle to be shorter.while mounted on fence post my fist kept hitting fence. Good product.

I was disappointed when I opened it, it is small. Purchased to replace a 2 way ratcheting boat winch that quit working and that I never liked. No reason for a 2 way ratcheting winch on a boat unless your unloading a huge boat on a very step landing. So I wanted a single ratcheting winch that's why I bought this one. They make bigger ones but thought this 600lb one is what I needed, if I had to go back would have purchased bigger 1 way rachet winch from somewhere else being this company only offers bigger 2 way winch. But all I use my winch for is holding boat while in transport. I only winch my boat a foot are less each trip being I pull my boat all the way on trailer useing my motor. I got this winch installed on a aluminum boat trailer, 16ft boat with 60horse outboard. I put 15ft 2inch strap on with no issue, I spilt strap inserted one end trough hole in side of winch tide knot in it and winched it up with no issue . Being a Ole country boy I know how to make things work. .....winch is small but seems well built works great and I feel will be just fine on my boat. Only disappoint is on my part ordering a winch to small for my liking but 5 stars cause it will work and it seems to be a good winch.

Used 3 of these to build a sail shade for my yard. They help me easily raise and lower shade by myself. Has lasted well through tough winters in Colorado.

Great winch.

Making a giant halloween prop and needed a winch. Was delighted to open the box and find a well made little winch. I've used a bunch of winches, and this unit was surprisingly tight and well built. And the price was killer. It's not galvanized, but the black paint must be powder coat because it's perfect and smooth. 5 stars.

works great, I use it to raise and lower my 100lb punching bag in the garage with ease. The lock and winch feel very secure but I also put a board under it for added security

I have bought four of them and I use them to raise tarpaulins at my summer bungalow. As I said above they are quite heavy and rugged. They have an ratchet as you wind in the rope or wire but they don't have a brake so be careful unwinding under load.

man these little winches are the business. what a great tool
