Dutton-Lainson TW9015 Electric Trailer Winch, 12V DC, 9,000 lb Boat Capacity, Wireless Remote
The Dutton-Lainson TW9015 is a 12V DC electric trailer winch built for horizontal pulling applications, making it well suited for getting a boat on and off its trailer or for vehicle trailer use. It runs off your vehicle's battery and includes a wiring harness for installation, along with a handheld remote control on a 10-foot cord so you can operate the winch from a safe distance while guiding your load. The winch is rated for loads up to 3,000 lbs in general trailer use and up to 9,000 lbs for boats, powered by a high-torque 12V DC motor with a maximum runtime of 4 minutes and built-in circuit breaker overload protection.
Inside, the TW9015 uses a heat treated spur gear system that runs more efficiently and draws less amperage than traditional planetary gear winches, paired with precision needle bearings for reduced friction and longer service life. A clutch lever allows smooth control when paying out the load in neutral, and it automatically returns to a locked position when released; an emergency crank handle is included as a manual backup if power is lost. The 3-position rotary switch operates the winch, and a die formed base allows for quick mounting in a variety of locations. Construction pairs a brushed stainless steel front plate with a high impact case for corrosion resistance and durability in marine environments. A 20-foot strap with snap hook is included. The TW9015 is made in the USA.
