The first winch I will review today has an exceptionally large amount of rated line pull for a UTV/ATV winch. This winch is capable of 5000lbs  single line rated pull. Along with a heavy-duty 3.8 hp permanent electric motor befitting its size, this winch can easily deal with almost any task you throw at it.

As expected of a heavy-duty winch, it has a universal 3 stage gear mechanism giving it faster line speed. It has 10.5 Fpm of line speed while pulling 4000 lbs of load and drawing as low as 190 amp of motor current.

This winch also includes 50 ft of abrasion-resistant wired cable along with a roller fairlead to guide it properly. It features an automatic load holding brake that will hold the load in place preventing any accident. This winch comes with a free spooling clutch and power in & power out function for ease of use.

Another great thing about this winch is that it’s dust and water-resistant with an IP67 rating, protected against debris and water damage. The package contains both corded as well as cordless remote control options

Pros

  • Fast line speed.
  • Draws low electric current.
  • Water and dust resistant.
  • Detailed instruction manual.

2. Quadboss 3500lb Winch Review

Specifications

  • Rated line pull (single line) 3,500 lbs./1,589kgs
  • Gear reduction ratio: 241:1
  • Motor (permanent) 3.5Hp 12-Volt DC
  • Cable (min. break force 5,600 lbs.) Dyneema® rope  7/32” x 39’

  • Net weight 18 lbs.

The next winch we’re going to talk about is Quadboss 3500lb Winch that can recover most ATV and moderately weighed UTV.  It’s similar to the previous winch we have mentioned in some ways, but it has some distinguishing features as well.

One of the standout features is the synthetic Dyneema rope this winch has, contrary to the steel rope of the previous one. This 39 feet long strong, lightweight rope can easily float in water making it a great choice for recovery. Although synthetic rope is prone to abrasion damage, the included abrasion protection sleeve will allow you to use this winch frequently without any worry.

The gear mechanism of this winch is 2 stage metal planetary gear powered by 3.5Hp heavy-duty electric permanent magnet motor providing decent line speed. The motor itself draws a very low electric current. Like the other winches in this list, this winch also features a power in & power out function and a free spooling clutch whenever you need to pull out line. Automatic brake provides much-needed stopping power.

This winch comes with a corded remote controller. It is IP67 rated sealed and water-resistant, making it a perfect winch to take out on rough terrain and harsh weather conditions.

Pros

  • Draws low electric current.
  • Water and dust resistant.
  • Detailed instruction manual.

Cons

  • Does not have a wireless controller.
  • The provided rope is short.
