Unparalleled 13.6 Tonne Industrial Strength
The HEN30000 is engineered for professionals where equipment reliability is paramount. It delivers a first-layer line pull of 30,000 lb (13,608 kg) and a line speed of 15.1 fpm (4.6 m/min) at 70 l/min oil flow. Key specifications include a working pressure of 2,465 psi (17 MPa) and a gear ratio of 30.39:1. The manual clutch ensures reliable engagement and precise control, even in the most remote and challenging environments.
Mechanical Simplicity: The Manual Clutch
The manual clutch prioritises mechanical reliability by eliminating reliance on air compressors. Its lever operation provides fail-safe engagement with positive feedback, making it ideal for vehicles without pneumatic systems or when operational simplicity is critical.
Extreme Engineering & Weatherproofing
The winch features oversized cast steel drum supports, hardened planetary gears, and a carbon steel tie bar, ensuring structural integrity under 13.6-tonne pulls. GV-12 threads provide leak-resistant oil connections, while the multi-disc brake and IP67-rated seals guarantee reliable operation in mud, rain, or grit.
Wire Rope & Performance by Layer
The recommended 18 mm (3/4") wire rope has a drum capacity of 170.6 ft (52 m) over 5 layers. Rated line pull and line speed vary by layer; for example, layer 5 offers 17,728 lb of pull and 24.3 fpm speed, utilising the full 170.6 ft capacity. Refer to the Performance table in the Specifications for full details.
