⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: WINCH ONLY CONFIGURATION
This listing is for the winch unit only (with synthetic rope attached). Accessories such as remotes, isolator switches, hooks, soft shackles, external cabling, fairleads, and mounting hardware are not included and must be sourced separately to suit your specific vehicle and application.
Overview
The Version 3 Carbon 20K 12V Winch is built with robust construction and sealed electronics for reliable operation in harsh environments. An IP68-rated sealing system provides protection against dust and water ingress, supported by a breathable membrane motor breather that manages internal pressure changes caused by temperature variations.
Weighing approximately 31.7 kg (fitted), this unit is engineered to balance immense pulling capacity with a manageable front axle load. It is the ideal choice for massive rigs, commercial recovery vehicles, and heavy-duty trucks requiring a bare winch replacement or a custom-integrated setup.
Features
- Colossal Pulling Power: Delivers a massive 9072kg (20000lbs) single-line pull driven by a 12V DC 7.0 HP series wound motor.
- IP68 Protection: Complete protection against dust and dirt, and water submersible up to 1.5m for 30 minutes (not during operation).
- Extreme Gearing: Features an ultra-low 354:1 gear ratio 3-stage planetary geartrain for massive torque and controlled recoveries.
- Reliable Braking: Built-in automatic brake in the motor bracket for secure load holding.
- Australian Support: Backed by a 5-year electrical/water ingress warranty and a lifetime geartrain warranty, with replacement parts stocked locally in Australia.
- Upgrade Compatible: Fully compatible with the Carbon Offroad Air Freespool Clutch Upgrade.
