The Riggers Winch provides the user with a lightweight, CE certified, portable winch mounted to a sturdy adapter plate. Can be mounted to a tripod. Simple to use and ideal for a diverse range of lifting and load pulling applications. The pigtail line lead ensures correct alignment and loading for maximum efficiency.
Winches feature 17-4 PH high-strength stainless steel load-carrying gears and pins for durability. Packages include a universal mounting plate, Harken 10-inch winch handle, and a Harken winch 20.
The mounting plate is sculpted to remove excess weight and provides multiple attachment points without compromising strength. The pigtail line lead ensures correct alignment and loading of the winch for maximum efficiency.
Fiber Rope
The winch is designed for use with fiber rope up to 12 mm in diameter, reducing weight and allowing alignment to the load. Smooth surfaces and chafe-free design are amenable to fiber rope.
Options
For use with multiple attachments depending on the environment and industry—from ratchet straps, M10 bolts, karabiners, to scaffold clamps.
Certification
CE certified under EN 13157 (Machinery Directive), please see Specification Tab for load details.
FAQs
Q: What is the maximum line operating length?

A: In accordance with Directive 2009/104/EC persons may be lifted only by means of work equipment and accessories provided for that purpose. Without prejudice to Article 5 of Directive 89/391/EC, exceptionally, work equipment which is not specifically designed for the purpose of lifting persons may be used for that purpose, provided appropriate action has been taken to ensure safety in accordance with national legislation and/or practice providing for appropriate supervision.
Q: Is the kit supplied with the attachment fittings?
A: No. Attachments and fittings are dependent on operational use. The Harken Tech Team can provide advice on the best attachment solution.
