BULLDOG Creates Line of 12 Winches BULLDOG™, the brand trusted for all heavy-duty towing needs, is proud to offer an extensive line of Hydraulic and DC Electric winches. These cost-effective winches are armed with features ready for any task including being lightweight and flexible, having a weight capacity ranging from 2,500 to 18,000 lbs., and employing patented brake systems that focus on control and safety. The hydraulic winches can be used for professional and commercial use. These extremely powerful winches are constructed to provide a continuous duty cycle with a 2-stage planetary gear and T-handle clutch as well as dual brakes. “We know that winches are used for a variety of jobs, so when brainstorming the specifications and features needed, it was difficult to create just one product,” said Victor Burmeister, director of new business development. “That’s why we created an array of winches for the veteran and novice alike, allowing customers to pick from a range of products to meet their specific needs.” The electric winches are offered in two series; heavy duty and utility duty. The heavy duty winches are built tough with a strong, aluminum alloy housing created for use on big jobs, and are conveniently weather resistant. To reduce over-heating, a Cone Brake Structure System is used to disperse heat and protect synthetic rope. The utility duty winches provide a 3-stage planetary gear ratio to provide a reliable performance in tough conditions, a 50’ wire rope, a handheld switch remote control, and have an automatic load-holding mechanical brake to avoid slippage. The hydraulic winches are available in three different models with the weight capacity of 8,000 to 15,000 lbs. Each winch is backed by a limited lifetime mechanical warranty against manufacturer defects. The DC Electric winches are offered in six heavy duty models ranging from 6,000 lb. to 18,000 lbs. weight capacity, and six utility duty models equipped to withstand 2,500 lb. to 12,000 lbs. These winches are backed by a limited lifetime warranty on all mechanical parts. Electrical components are backed for one year.
