Winches


A winch is a mechanical device that is used to wind up a rope or cable; it generally consists of a winch drum that is attached to a crank. Winches that are used in heavy lifting industries can have sophisticated gear assemblies that are powered by hydraulic, pneumatic or combustible engine drives. Some applications may need a winch that includes a mechanical brake or ratchet to prevent the rope from unwinding. Safety Services Group stocks and supplies some of the most heavy duty hand winches, air winches, and electrical winches currently available in the market.
