Description
If you need a winch that runs on AC current, Superwinch offers a wide variety of AC winches to meet your needs. Superwinch offers models ranging in capacity from 1,00 pounds all the way up to 3,00 pounds.
The Superwinch 1,000 lb and 1,500 lb AC winches are designed to plug right into a 3 prong outlet running normal 115 volt current. The 2,000 lb and 3,000 lb models use single phase power. All of these winches feature a durable, compact housing and Super winch provides you with a heavy duty hand saver to make pulling out your wire rope safe and easy.
The 1,000 pound and 1,500 pound winches operate at their rated load with a maximum draw of 10 amps and even the largest AC winch will not draw more than 17 amps from a direct-wired source. Each winch comes with detailed instructions allowing for a fast and easy installation. Superwinch has been making high quality winches for use on trucks, Jeeps, trailers, and in the home for over 40 years so you can rest assured that when you purchase one of their AC winches, you are getting the best your hard earned money can buy. So whether you are a pro or amateur user, rest easy knowing you can use an AC winch on anything from boating to racing without any problems. Made by Superwinch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Choose the Right Winch and Install it properly. First choose an installation site accessible to you. Align an unobstructed path to the car that you are loading. Prevent any metal-to-metal contact with the wire rope. Mount the winch close enough to the trailer’s front to pull the vehicle completely on. If it’s mounted under something, such as a toolbox, leave enough space to access the winch. See Below for Trailer Tips. Consider a pulley block. With a hook for mounting and a pulley for the wire rope, a pulley block lets you offset the winch but retain a straight shot. A pulley block can also be used to nearly double the winch’s capacity by simply attaching the pulley block’s hook directly to the load and the winch’s hook to a sturdy mount near the winch. Wire it right. A trailer wiring kit, like the kind available from Superwinch, makes it easy to get power for the winch from the tow vehicle’s battery. To maintain electrical performance from the battery to the winch, we recommend dropping 3 wire sizes for every doubling of the length of the standard wire harness. Example: No. 6 to No. 3 or 2 gauge. A quick disconnect plug for the truck comes prewired with a negative lead. Simply install the special terminal to the positive side of the quick disconnect and position the plug at the rear of the truck, perhaps under the bumper. If your tow vehicle isn’t equipped with a towing package that includes a dual-wire ground setup, Superwinch recommends installing the negative battery terminal strap provided with their winches. Take care that your wiring has fully secured leads which are clear of hot or moving parts. Know Your Rolling Weight: For safe and sure loading, Superwinch recommends following the car and trailer load chart below. Find the column that matches your percentage of slope or grade. Determine the slope by dividing the amount of your ramp’s rise by the ramp’s length. Match the slope with the nearest weight of your car, always rounding up, and locate the corresponding winch Rated Line Pull (RLP)*. This guide is recommended for average vehicle rolling loads. Some applications may require larger winches than indicated. Trailer Tips: Accessorize For Safety. Maximizing winch safety and performance is as simple as attaching the proper accessories. Superwinch offers roller fairleads, recovery straps, gloves, and many more accessories designed for your special needs. * RLP - The weight the winch could pull perpendicular to the ground with a single line on the first layer of wire rope on the drum.

Many of our units come standard with 50' of wire rope or more. In some cases this may be a disadvantage. Due to the length of your trailer you may be starting on the 3rd or 4th wrap. Simply shorten the wire rope to your needs. If you can work with 30', then shorten the wire rope and your performance will improve.
NOTE: To maintain electrical performance from the battery to the winch, we recommend dropping 3 wire sizes for every doubling of the length of the standard wire harness.
Example: No. 6 to No. 3 or 3 WG

Good for occasional or home use. Doesn't have the same build quality as WARN. Not well suited for daily or commercial use. Have used 4 of these units for vertical lifting and have burned up each one after about 8 months daily use.
