Description
The Novawinch KXH9000 is a heavy-duty, 9,000lb (4,082kg) hydraulic worm gear winch meticulously engineered for professional vehicle recovery and demanding industrial operations. Known for its legendary reliability, the worm gear architecture inherently delivers unyielding load-holding and natural braking capability. This makes the KXH9000 an exceptional choice for flatbed recovery trucks, tilt-and-slide vehicles, and heavy plant machinery where safety and absolute control are paramount.
Unyielding Worm Drive Power for Recovery & Plant Transport
Built for operators who require the mechanical advantages of a classic worm drive paired with smooth hydraulic performance, the KXH9000 features a powerful 4.8 cu. in. (81.5 cc) hydraulic motor and a high-reduction 52:1 gear ratio. On the crucial first layer of the drum, it provides a formidable 4,082kg (9,000 lbs) of continuous pulling force, making short work of heavy chassis recoveries and industrial plant loading.
Advanced Mechanical Braking & Premium Metallurgy
While the precision-cut worm gear and wheel drive naturally resist back-spooling to hold the load secure, the KXH9000 goes a step further. It integrates a dedicated automatic mechanical locking brake, providing an extra layer of safety for complex incline and vertical operations.
The internal gear set is built to endure massive torque, featuring a high-grade copper alloy worm wheel and premium tapered roller bearings that offer superior abrasion resistance and perfect alignment under load.
Hydraulic Performance & Cable Specifications
To achieve peak performance, the KXH9000 requires a hydraulic working pressure of 2,030 PSI (14 MPa / 140 bar) at an oil flow rate of 15.9 GPM (60 L/min). Under these optimal conditions, the winch achieves a steady, controlled line speed of 6 metres per minute (19.7 FPM).
Rigging Requirements: The 110mm x 200mm drum is optimized to run a 10.3mm x 21m (13/32″ x 68.9′) steel cable with a minimum breaking strength of 102 kN. Spooling is managed via a heavy-duty, lever-style manual clutch. (Please note: Wire rope/cable is sold separately).
Smart Modular Maintenance
Minimizing operational downtime is crucial for commercial operators. The KXH9000 features a highly practical modular design, allowing fleet mechanics and service engineers to easily access and service individual sections of the winch without complete disassembly.
