Dutton-Lainson Brake Winch

The Dutton-Lainson brake winch (also called a self-locking hand winch or trailer brake winch) is a manual winch for horizontal pulling and vertical lifting. It is built for multipurpose hauling and lifting jobs on boat trailers, boat lifts, utility trailers, and farm and industrial equipment. A fully automatic friction brake gives you safety, convenience, and control.

Key Features:

• Automatic friction brake: It holds the load in place whenever you release the handle. When cranking stops, the load stops, which helps prevent runaway loads.
• Strong construction: Rigid, welded reel construction and heavy gauge embossed, reinforced steel bases add strength.
• Durable gearing: Heat-treated, high carbon steel gears are made for long service life. Drive shaft gears are copper brazed.
• Maintenance-free bearings: Permanently lubricated bearings on the drive shafts need no upkeep.
• Easy mounting: Slotted mounting holes simplify installation.
• Safety standard: Meets ASAE Safety Standard S361.3.
• Made in the U.S.A. by a company that has been in business since 1886.

Brake winches need a minimum operating load to work properly, and the required load depends on the model. Like all Dutton-Lainson brake winches, they are not hoists for lifting, supporting, or transporting people, and they should not be used for loads over areas where people could be present.
