THERN 472 Worm Gear Hand Winch, Enclosed Gearing, 2000 Lbs.

Thern 472 hand winch is used in rail yards and the manufacturing & marine industries to lower and lift heavy loads with minimal effort. This hand winch has multiple configurations for accurate positioning.

Working Mechanism:

• Thern 472 hand winch operates by manual operation, where the user turns the handle or crank to apply force to the gear mechanism. This gear mechanism converts the rotational motion of the handle into a more powerful force suitable for lifting or pulling heavy loads. As the gears turn, they drive the rotation of a drum or spool, winding the cable or rope around it. One end of the cable or rope is attached to the drum, while the other end is secured to the load that needs to be lifted or pulled. When the handle is turned, the drum rotates, winding the cable or rope around it, creating tension in the cable or rope, allowing for lifting or pulling of the load as needed.

• It features a worm gear mechanism to prevent the load from slipping back when the winch is not actively being turned.
• This hand winch has a gear ratio of 24:1 for efficient power transmission.
• It features steel construction for durability and offers a first layer load capacity of 2000 lb.
