FAQ
Most run on 115 V single-phase power. The Liberty capstan winch is also available in 230 V, and the 3WG4 Atlas II has three-phase options.
Yes. Thern portable winches are commonly mounted on Thern davit cranes. We can quote the crane and winch together.
A capstan winch pulls rope around a rotating drum without storing it, so it can handle long pulls. The Liberty's swivel base lets it lift, pull and tension at almost any angle.
The 477 Dura-Hoist is available as the 4771HY hydraulic winch. Ask us about your power source.
