If you need to perform an operation that requires either the pulling or lifting of heavy objects, you can rely on the PCT1800 AC Electric Pulling / Lifting Winches rather than resort to expensive and unsightly machinery.
Both models – the PCT1800-50HZ-P and PCT1800-60HZ-P – are powered by a 3/4 HP electric motor that make this winch well suited for applications involving pulling wire through conduits, lifting heavy equipment, lifting transformers, bricks, antennas, and more.
These winches utilize an innovative rope grabbing system that is designed to hold a load in position, permitting the user to work safely. The electric motor is started once the user pulls on the rope. As soon as the user stops pulling the rope, the motor stops and the drum stops turning, helping to prevent damage to the rope. Because these winch models are AC electric powered, a 25% work cycle is recommended. It is highly recommended to use the PCT1800 AC Electric Pulling / Lifting Winches intermittently for 15 minutes per hour to prevent overheating to the motor.
Please note that the PCT1800 Winches can be used with any length rope but the rope diameter must be a minimum 3/8" and a maximum 5/8" for PULLING applications. For LIFTING applications, the PCHT1800 Winches can be used with any splice eyed length rope and must have minimum and maximum diameter of 1/2". Spliced eyed ropes are MANDATORY for lifting applications.
Both PCT1800 Winch models are identical, except for the VAC of the motor and the overall weight of the winch.
