Description
The WARN DC800 Industrial Hoist is engineered for those who need heavy-duty pulling power in a compact, high-efficiency package. Designed specifically for industrial applications where space is at a premium but performance cannot be compromised, the DC800 delivers a consistent 800 lb (363 kg) lift capacity.
Whether it’s for utility work, light construction, or specialized trailer applications, this hoist combines the legendary durability of Warn with a permanent magnet motor that ensures high torque and low amp draw.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Powerful Performance: Rated for an 800 lb (363 kg) first-layer line pull, making it ideal for precision lifting and pulling tasks.
-
12V DC Permanent Magnet Motor: Built for high torque and reliable duty cycles while remaining energy efficient.
-
Automatic Mechanical Brake: Features a 100% load-holding brake to ensure maximum safety and control during operation.
-
Durable Construction: Built with all-metal gear housing and a powder-coated finish to resist corrosion and harsh industrial environments.
-
Compact Footprint: Small enough to fit into tight mounting locations without sacrificing industrial-grade strength.
To maximize the performance and safety of your WARN DC800 (104801), it is essential to use the correct industrial-grade accessories. This hoist is often supplied as a “bare” unit, so you will likely need to add a control pack and rope to make it operational.
Essential Accessories & Replacement Parts (not included with the hoist)
-
Control Pack (12V) – Part #105646: Specifically designed for the DC800 and DC1000 industrial series. This provides the necessary electrical switching (contactor) to operate the motor safely under load.
-
Standard Steel Wire Rope – Part #60076: A 3/16″ x 50′ (4.8mm x 15.2m) steel cable designed to fit the DC800 drum. It features a minimum breaking strength of 4,200 lbs to ensure a high safety factor for the 800 lb lift rating.
-
Synthetic Rope Upgrade – Part #73599: A 3/16″ x 50′ synthetic line for those who prefer a lightweight, easier-to-handle alternative to steel.
-
Winch Remote Control – Part #88528: A heavy-duty handheld pendant with a 12′ (3.6m) lead, allowing the operator to stand clear of the load during lifting.
-
Roller Fairlead – Part #28929: Highly recommended to reduce wear and tear on your rope by guiding it onto the drum, especially during angled pulls.
