Man-Riding Winches Information

The unique feature is the Samiia gear type air motor with proven superior reliability in difficult environments or in poor quality air supply.

Two independent automatic brakes, one disc and one drum band brake are both capable of holding 180% of SWL.

Additional braking safety is provided by an internal non-return device preventing suspended loads from slipping before upwards motion starts. Lowering speed is also controlled by an internal motor valve to prevent excessive speeds.

Control is direct at lever on the winch motor with fine inching characteristics and automatic return to neutral with brakes applied (deadman handle).

  • Do you want us to supply the rope? (New ropes should be purchased for man-riding operations)
  • Do you require snatch blocks?
  • Do you require safety harnesses?
  • Will you require shear legs (tripod)?
  • Is there sufficient air available?
