Frequently Asked Questions

+ Why is an external brake better than a standard in-drum brake?

An external brake is a revolutionary upgrade because it moves the source of heat away from the winch drum. Traditional in-drum brakes can get extremely hot, which can degrade grease and damage synthetic ropes over time. The Samurai's design ensures superior, fade-free braking without compromising your gear.

+ Is this winch strong enough for my full-size truck or heavy SUV?

Yes. With a 12,500lb rated line pull, the Samurai is an excellent choice for recovering full-size 4x4s, heavy-duty trucks, and highly equipped off-road vehicles. A general rule of thumb is to choose a winch rated for at least 1.5 times your vehicle's gross weight.

+ How waterproof is the IP67 rating?

An IP67 rating means the winch is fully protected from dust ingress and can be submerged in water up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes. This extensive sealing on the motor, drum, and contactor makes it highly reliable for deep water crossings and muddy environments.

+ Is the wireless remote included with the winch?

Yes, the 12V Samurai model includes a heavy-duty integrated 2.4G wireless system right out of the box. You get the convenience and safety of wireless operation without needing to purchase any extra accessories.

+ What is the warranty on the Samurai 12,500lb winch?

The Samurai series winch comes with a 5-year limited warranty for commercial/industrial use when registered after purchase. This covers mechanical components against defects and demonstrates our commitment to quality and durability.
