Novawinch WinchesDescription
The Novawinch KXH10000 is a highly durable 10,000lb (4,535kg) hydraulic worm gear winch built to meet the demanding requirements of commercial recovery operations and heavy industrial handling. By utilizing a high-torque worm drive setup, this winch inherently delivers uncompromising load retention and resistance to back-driving. It is a preferred choice across the UK for chassis-mounted recovery trucks, tilt-and-slide flatbeds, and heavy machinery transport trailers.
High-Torque Worm Drive Power for Industrial Recovery
Engineered for professionals who prioritize the steady, dependable pulling power of a worm drive coupled with standard hydraulic configurations, the KXH10000 handles tough tasks with ease. Driven by an efficient 4.8 cu. in. (81.5 cc) hydraulic motor and a powerful 52:1 gear ratio, it maintains a strong 4,535kg (10,000 lbs) rated line pull on its first layer, providing the muscle required for heavy equipment loading and complex vehicle recoveries.
Robust Mechanical Braking & Premium Metallurgy
While the precision-machined worm gear layout provides excellent natural braking, the KXH10000 adds an extra layer of protection with a dedicated automatic mechanical locking brake. This dual-action braking profile ensures absolute safety when handling heavy loads on steep inclines or vertical drops.
To withstand intense friction and stress, the winch is built using a premium copper alloy worm wheel and heavy-duty tapered roller bearings. This design ensures exceptional torque handling, precise internal alignment, and long-term resistance to wear.
System Hydraulics & Cable Compatibility
To achieve its rated line speed of 6 metres per minute (19.7 FPM), the KXH10000 requires a hydraulic setup delivering 2,030 PSI (14 MPa / 140 bar) of pressure at an oil flow rate of 15.9 GPM (60 L/min).
Rigging & Drum Specs: The 110mm x 200mm drum is built to accommodate a 10.3mm x 21m (13/32″ x 68.9′) steel cable with a minimum breaking strength of 102 kN. Cable free-spooling is easily managed via an ergonomic, lever-operated manual clutch. (Please note: Winch cable is available separately).
Service-Friendly Modular Construction
For commercial fleets, minimizing workshop downtime is paramount. The KXH10000 is engineered with a clever modular chassis design. This allows fleet mechanics and service technicians to quickly access, inspect, or service individual mechanical components without needing to strip down the entire assembly.
