Dutton-Lainson - D-L - WG1500HEX Worm Gear Winch - Hex Drive - Made in USA | 1,500 Lb Capacity, 5/8 in Hex Drive, Rust-resistant Finish, 30:1 Gear Ratio, For Lifting and Hauling, Drill Or Manual Use

LOAD HOLDS IN PLACE. This worm gear winch stops and holds the load the instant cranking stops, so positioning stays controlled without a separate brake step. The self-locking design suits lifting jobs where steady, controlled movement matters more than speed and the load must not shift between pulls. As a hand winch or come along winch, it works well for garage hoist, shop, farm, and job site pulling tasks.

DRILL DRIVEN LIFTING. This drill winch pairs a 5/8 in hex drive with a standard cordless drill to move heavy loads with less hand-crank effort across repeated pulls and long lifts. A removable socket handle is included for manual winch operation whenever power isn't available, turning it into a dependable hand crank winch on demand. The dual-drive format makes this fixed-mount winch practical for farm, shop, and job site lifting setups.

BUILT FOR HARD WORK. This genuine Dutton-Lainson hand winch combines hardened all-steel gears and lubricated internals for a smooth, solid feel under load and dependable pulling and lifting on farms, docks, and job sites. The controlled worm gear winch action offers steady load holding during positioning, unlike a basic come along winch that can slip between pulls. As a heavy duty winch, it fits demanding farm, dock, and job site pulling jobs.

RATED FOR HEAVY LOADS. Rated at 1,500 lb on the first layer of line, this winch delivers controlled pulling and lifting power for long lifts, heavy loads, and awkward positioning jobs around the shop or job site. The 30:1 gear ratio keeps movement smooth and manageable under load, while the black powder-coated steel body adds rust-resistant protection for outdoor and weather-exposed service on farms, docks, and job sites.

DRIVE AND MOUNTING. This winch runs on a 5/8 in hex drive for drill-powered operation or a removable socket handle for manual hand-crank operation, giving flexibility for the job at hand. Its compact body mounts easily in compatible fixed hoist or lifting setups without requiring special hardware. The standard reel holds up to 43 ft of 1/4 in cable (not included), suiting farm, shop, dock, and job site installations.
