12V Recovery Winch for 4x4s, Recovery Trucks and Car Transporters

The Novawinch Stinger 12,000lb is a 12V electric winch with steel wire rope and DUO wireless plus wired control. Built for 4x4s, recovery trucks and car transporters, it delivers 5,443kg (12,000lb) line pull with IP68+ sealing and automatic load-holding braking. The Stinger is engineered for demanding recovery and loading work where reliability and durability matter.

Heavy-Duty Construction

Stinger winches are built for repeated high-load use. Upgraded electronics and premium solenoids improve efficiency under load; larger gears and a reinforced drive spline handle frequent recovery cycles. If you need a 12V recovery winch that performs in real working conditions, the Stinger 12,000lb is designed for that role.

Steel Wire Rope for Abrasive Conditions

This model is fitted with high-grade steel wire rope for strong abrasion resistance on rocks, rough ground and tough recovery routes. Wire rope remains a preferred choice for operators who want traditional toughness and easy visual inspection for damage compared with synthetic rope.

IP68+ Sealing for Wet and Muddy Conditions

Mud, rain and water crossings are part of recovery work. The Stinger 12,000lb uses enhanced sealing that exceeds IP68, helping protect the motor and solenoid from dust and water ingress so you can operate with confidence in wet and unpredictable conditions.

DUO Control: Wireless and Wired

The DUO Control System combines wireless operation for safe distance control with a wired backup. If the remote battery is low or signal is obstructed, the wired lead ensures you always have control when you need it.

Automatic Braking and Load Holding

An automatic load-holding brake helps prevent rollback during lifting and loading, giving you controlled pulling power whether you are recovering a vehicle or loading machinery.

Key Features

  • 12,000lb (5,443kg) rated line pull for 4x4, recovery and transport use
  • 12V DC operation for standard vehicle and recovery truck electrical systems
  • Steel wire rope for durability and abrasion resistance
  • Wireless remote with wired backup (DUO Control System)
  • IP68+ sealing for use in water, mud and harsh weather
  • Reinforced gearing and upgraded solenoids for heavy-duty cycles
  • Automatic braking for safer lifting and recovery

Free next day delivery. Ensure correct mounting and wiring for your vehicle.

Is the Stinger 12000 wire rope winch 12V only?

Yes. The Stinger 12000 is a 12V electric winch, so it runs from a standard 12V vehicle or battery system. That makes it suitable for 4x4s, recovery trucks, car transporters and plant that use 12V. If you need 24V, the PRO PLUS or PRO MAX series offer 24V options at similar or higher capacities.

Does this Stinger come with wireless remote?

Yes. This model includes the DUO Control System: a wireless remote so you can operate the winch from a safer position, plus a wired backup connection. If the wireless battery is low or signal is poor, you can still use the wired remote. Both are included in the box.

Why choose wire rope over synthetic on the Stinger 12000?

Steel wire rope is very abrasion-resistant and suits rocky terrain, rough ground and heavy recovery where the line may rub on surfaces. This Stinger 12000 is supplied with 3/8" x 85.3' (9.2mm x 26m) steel wire rope and a 4-way roller fairlead. If you prefer lighter handling and no kinking, the Stinger 12000 is also available with synthetic rope; choose by your main use (abrasion vs handling).

Is the Stinger 12000 suitable for recovery trucks and 4x4s?

Yes. The Stinger 12000 is built for 4x4 recovery, recovery trucks and car transporters. 12,000lb (5,443kg) rated line pull, IP68+ sealing for mud and water, and automatic load-holding braking give dependable performance in tough UK conditions. 12 month warranty and free next day delivery.

What warranty does the Stinger 12000 have?

The Stinger 12000 comes with a 12 month warranty and free next day delivery across the UK. Technical support is available for fitment and wiring.
