We built the EDGE series to appeal to the 4WD enthusiast who is passionate about quality, but wants more value for money. The EDGE series ticks all those boxes with standard features not found on comparable winches.

FEATURES OF AN EDGE WINCH

Control box with IP65 waterproof
contactor (solenoid) system

PVC Insulated tinned coated power cables with a fibreglass outer sheath

High quality plug with protective cap

Industrial grade hand control with forward and reverse controls and 5m (16.5″) lead

Three stage planetary gearbox with
high quality components

Reinforced eyelets for maximum strength

We are so confident in the quality and design of our EDGE series winches we offer a five year mechanical component warranty and five year electrical component warranty.

Please refer to our warranty statement for further details.

TESTED & APPROVED

To ensure the very best manufacturing processes are undertaken in the building of our EDGE series winches, we have developed our own detailed testing procedures to ensure they meet and exceed our engineering, performance, and quality benchmarks. Our testing procedures are divided into two individual areas: Strength and Durability.

STRENGTH TESTING

Each EDGE winch is tested to 1.1 times the maximum rated line pull in a dynamic testing environment, and 1.25 times maximum rated line pull in a static testing environment. These tests are designed to examine the overall strength and ability of the winch while observing and recording the important characteristics and operational performance specifications.

DURABILITY TESTING

The winch is tested to the maximum duty cycle (1 minute) and rated line pull (winch applicable rating) in a dynamic test. This test is performed no less than 100 times and recorded; furthermore the first (1st) cycle is tested to 1.25 times the rated line pull. After the winch has passed 100 cycles without failure the winch and components are passed and inspected.

EDGE MECHANICAL

Each winch in the EDGE series features a three stage planetary gearbox with sintered steel bushings which have been pressed and stamped (no pop rivets) into the gear carrier. A sliding ring gear clutch provides maximum strength and efficiency in forward and reverse winching operations with ease of free spool functionality.

Each gear box is assembled and lubricated using synthetic grease and conforms to our strict assembly guidelines. Providing strength and enduring the pulling forces exerted is a hardened seamless steel drum assembly. Delivering maximum safety during a recovery is an automatic load holding in-drum brake system.

EDGE ELECTRICAL

Delivering power to the winch is a waterproof solenoid that uses Ag-Cd (Silver cadmium) alloy contacts. The technology and quality of these contactors resist arching when switching currents. This prevents the contactors from fusing together creating a closed circuit which can potentially damage your winch or vehicle and possibly cause serious injury to the operator.
This solenoid is housed in a sleek and stylish control box which has a waterproof plug. The heavy duty hand control comes with a 5 metre (16.5’) power cord with the option to upgrade to a wireless remote control which offers the user complete control and flexibility to stand well clear of the winch during operation.

The 9500lb & 12000llb series winches use an efficient 12 volt 4.8hp series wound motor while the 6000lb runs a 3.6hp. Also available is a 24-volt 12000lb winch, using a 24-volt 4.8hp series wound motor. All these models offer performance and reliability in the toughest of conditions. We are so confident in the quality and design of our EDGE series winches we offer a five year manufacturer’s warranty on both mechanical and electrical components.
