PULLMASTER WINCHES LOGO
Pullmaster PL SERIES:
Equal Speed

High-performance, high-efficiency planetary winches offering equal speed in both directions. Ideal for hoisting and lowering applications.

  • Hydraulic gear motor
  • Spring-applied, pressure-released, automatic multi-disc brake
  • Over-running clutch enables free rotation in the hoisting direction without affecting the brake.
  • During lower operations, the over-running clutch locks causing the disc brakes to rotate between a series of divider discs. Dynamic braking is then achieved by modulation of the winch control valve handle. When the control is returned to neutral position, the brake applies automatically.
  • A counter-balance valve is not required for smooth and positive “Down” control.

Pullmaster M SERIES:
Equal Speed

Pullmaster M SERIES:
Equal Speed

High-performance, high-efficiency planetary winch with equal speed in both directions. The M series offers exceptionally smooth lowering control of the maximum rated load in a step-less operation.

  • Hydraulic gear motor
  • Spring-applied, pressure-released, automatic multi-disc brake
  • Over-running clutch enables free rotation in the hoisting direction without affecting the brake.
  • During lower operations, the over-running clutch locks causing the disc brakes to rotate between a series of divider discs. Dynamic braking is then achieved by modulation of the winch control valve handle. When the control is returned to neutral position, the brake applies automatically.
  • A counter-balance valve is not required for smooth and positive “Down” control.

Our most popular Pullmaster M series winches are:

The M8 (Click here for the brochure)

Model M8
Weight: 246 lbs / Capacity: 8,500 lbs (3,856 kg)

The M12 (Click here for the brochure)

Model M12
Weight: 246 lbs / Capacity: 12,121 lbs (5,498 kg)

H SERIES:
Rapid Reverse

High-performance, high-efficiency planetary winch with rapid reverse speed 4.5 times faster than forward speed. In reverse rotation (lowering), the maximum load can be positively controlled at a line speed equal to the hoisting speed.

  • Hydraulic gear motor
  • Spring-applied, pressure-released multi-disc brake with static and dynamic functions
  • During hoisting, the hydraulic motor drives direct into the planetary reductions without affecting the brake assembly. When forward rotation is stopped, an over-running clutch will lock and the multi-disc brake will positively hold the maximum load.
  • During lowering, the brake is released automatically and then modulated for the desired lowering speed by a single control lever.
  • A counter-balance valve is not required for smooth and positive “Down” control.

Our most popular H series winches are:

The H8 (Click here for the brochure)

Model H8
Weight: 331 lbs / Capacity: 8,500 lbs (3,856 kg)

Pullmaster Line Capacities: Wire Rope vs Dyneema.

It is increasingly common to substitute modern synthetic ropes for the standard wire rope on these winches. Here is a chart showing the line capacities of all Pullmaster winches. You can see the optimum suggested wire rope diameter, and the length of wire rope you can get on each winch. But the chart also shows the line capacities for smaller diameters. Thinner diameter Dyneema and similar products on the market can have the same strength as wire rope of a much larger diameter.
