Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding a specific winch that meets certain specifications, including power, lifting capacity, voltage, and gear ratio. The inquiry is primarily focused on sourcing options available online.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • The original poster (OP) seeks a winch with approximately 50W power, capable of lifting around 180Kg, operating at DC 12V or 24V, and having a specific gear ratio.
  • One participant suggests looking into the 12V winch market for off-road vehicles as a potential source.
  • Another participant notes that the OP's requirement of 1/15hp is significantly lower than typical automotive winches, which start around 1hp.
  • A participant acknowledges their oversight in initially missing the OP's specified power requirement.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants appear to agree on the difficulty of finding a winch that meets the OP's specifications, but there is disagreement regarding the availability of suitable options in the market.

Contextual Notes

The discussion does not clarify the specific gear ratio needed or the implications of the power and lifting capacity on the selection of a winch.

Hi,
I am looking to find a winch on the web to have some specifications but nothing. Is there any person who can help me to find a winch at the specification i need? Thanks

Specifications: ~50W power, to lift ~180Kg, DC 12V or 24V, and to have a gear ratio.

Basicaly i have to find a winch to make comparison to my own which is 50W, 180Kg pulling force, it has 180:1 gearbox ratio. I have to find a winch to compare the powers and the gearbox ratios, but nothing on the web. Thanks, any help will appreciated.

I would look at 12V winches markets for off road vehicles.
 
Umm... the OP is looking for 1/15hp. Those automotive winches begin around 1hp, and up.
