Frequently Asked Questions

+ What is the difference between steel and synthetic rope?

Steel wire rope is highly durable, resistant to abrasion, and generally more economical. It requires a roller fairlead. Synthetic rope is lighter, stronger (pound-for-pound), safer in case of breakage (less recoil), and easier to handle. It requires a hawse fairlead and is less prone to kinking or rust.

+ Is this winch waterproof?

The Superwinch Tiger Shark 11500SR features a weather-sealed solenoid and a robust design to resist water ingress, making it suitable for challenging outdoor conditions. While not fully submersible like some IP68-rated models, it's highly resistant to splashes and rain.

+ What type of motor does it use?

The Tiger Shark 11500SR is equipped with a powerful 6.0 HP series wound motor. Series wound motors are known for their high torque output and reliability, making them ideal for heavy-duty winching applications.

+ What is the warranty on this Superwinch product?

The Superwinch Tiger Shark 11500SR comes with a Limited Lifetime Mechanical Warranty and a Limited 7 Year Electrical Warranty, providing long-term peace of mind for your investment.
