35kN Bull Wheel Winch – Skid-mount
Product Overview
Description
These winches are specifically designed to haul cable through ducts and use a double bull-wheel configuration with storage reel. The proportional hydraulic system is diesel driven with electric start. The winches are fully self-contained and can be supplied with container locks for fixing to the tray of a flat-top truck. They are also provided with lifting points for easy loading and unloading.
