Steel winches
Steel winches are powerful tools that have been specially developed to lift, move or lower heavy loads. They combine mechanical precision with an extremely robust design that works reliably even under the most demanding conditions. Thanks to their mechanical operation, steel winches are independent of power sources and therefore offer maximum flexibility - whether on the construction site, in the industrial sector or during rescue operations.
The solid steel construction not only ensures an enormous load-bearing capacity, but also a long service life. Even with intensive use, functionality is maintained for years. Steel winches are therefore suitable for professional applications as well as for private projects where safety and efficiency are important.
Our steel winches in shortened and adjustable versions from 1500 kg to 10000 kg allow loads to be lifted easily and conveniently.
Types of steel winches and their special Features
Steel winches are available in different versions, which differ in terms of their design and possible applications.
Standard steel winch
The standard steel winch in accordance with DIN 7355 has a lifting housing, the gear rack is helically toothed. Equipped with a self-locking safety crank (Siku) or pressure roller crank (DSK), the load is held securely at any height. Available with safety ratchet crank (Raku) for working in confined spaces.
Steel winch, shortened Version
The low overall height of the steel winch in the shortened version significantly extends the range of possible applications. Available with Siku or Raku. Reversible handle.
Steel winch, adjustable Version
Steel winch in the adjustable version with lifting housing to DIN 7355.1960. The adjustable claw can be set for different working levels. Full utilization of the lifting capacity is guaranteed even without the winch being mounted underneath. Available with Siku or Raku (DSK on request). Reversible handle.
Rack and pinion wall winch
Rack and pinion wall winch developed from DIN steel winches, gearbox made of steel, hardened in use.
With low space requirement, reversible handle. Rack and pinion with even toothing available in any length and available with Siku, Raku or DSK. Load in compression or Tension.
Wide range of applications for steel winches
Steel winches are incredibly versatile and can be used in almost all areas where heavy loads need to be handled. Some examples of their application:
- On construction sites: They are used to lift steel beams, concrete slabs or machines that would be difficult to move without mechanical support. Steel winches are also ideal for precise alignment of construction elements.
- In workshops: Here, steel winches are often used for repairs, for example to lift vehicles or heavy equipment in order to carry out maintenance work.
- In agriculture: Steel winches make it easier to lift agricultural machinery, erect fences or move heavy trailers.
- Logistics and transportation: Steel winches are an indispensable aid when loading heavy goods or securing containers.
- Rescue services: In emergencies, steel winches can be used to stabilize vehicles, move debris or rescue people from dangerous situations.
What are the advantages of steel winches?
Steel winches offer several advantages when lifting heavy loads:
- High load capacity: depending on the model, steel winches can handle loads from several hundred kilograms to several tons. This makes them ideal for a wide range of requirements - from private use to large-scale industrial projects.
- Precise mechanics: The rack and pinion or ratchet mechanism allows precise control when lifting and lowering, which is essential, especially for sensitive or dangerous work.
- Integrated safety mechanisms: Many models are equipped with load safety devices or backstops that prevent unintentional lowering and thus ensure maximum safety.
- Low-maintenance design: Steel winches do not require hydraulic fluid or power connections, making them particularly robust and easy to maintain.
- Simple operation: Thanks to long lever arms or ergonomically designed handles, even heavy loads can be moved without excessive effort.
