For sale is a Electricians Double Winch. It was made for pulling wires and has a 1 HP, 1725 RPM GE motor (110/220volts). The spools rotate at approximately 20 RPM.
I tested this winch and found that the motor runs runs, it spins and pulls, however, I cannot guarantee you anything about the brake. I do not think that a brake is very essential anyway, considering that the worm drive has a 1:80 reduction.
I am sure that this winch has many creative applications.
Weight appx. 270 lbs, plus or minus. Cannot be shipped via UPS and needs to go via freight. LOCAL PICKUP IS FREE OF ANY SHIPPING OR HANDLING CHARGES, CASN ONLY ON LOCAL PICKUP. I WILL LOAD YOU FOR FREE.
