Winches

Keep your car prepped with a 12V winch in NZ

A winch is a must-have device for anyone who often travels off-road. This tool helps to free your car from difficult situations where the vehicle can’t move, such as deep mud, sand, ice, rocks, and ledges. By attaching the winch to your car and an immovable object in the surrounding area, you can use the winch’s motor to pull yourself up and out to leave safely. Our electric winches stand the test of time, featuring a durable Dyneema synthetic cable and remote control for safety and reliability. Each winch is waterproof, making it a secure backup plan, rain or shine.

How big of a winch do you need to pull a car?

At Trade Tested, we offer four types of portable winches for different vehicle weights. The winch with the strength you require should be able to drag at least 1.5 times your car’s gross vehicle weight rating. You’ll also need to consider the extra weight of any accessories on your car, such as bumpers or racks.
