TR Industrial 1200 lb. Trailer Winch with Pre-Installed 20 ft. Strap and Hook

It is sturdy and I mounted it with bolts thru a 4x4

For the money the look and durability are nice. When pulling up my 17’ bass boat it struggled when it got to the end and slipped intermittently. Could have just been the unit , didn’t happen every time. Worth a shot for the money and even with the occasional slip still worked well for what I needed.

After about 2 months they got rust all over them and they stay under a covered carport. Im just gonna throw them in the trash and get a different brand.

I replaced the original equipment winch on my boat trailer with this. Used it once and am taking it off - see photo. I had to stop to tighten the winch no fewer than 6 times, the strap must have been stretching. Odd, since I replaced the strap on my original winch and never had to retighten it. I figured this mfr just cheaped out on the strap and when I went to put my old strap (less than a year old), I could see the huge difference between the two. And, the bolt that attaches the strap to the winch was quite bent! It also lacked a sleeve that the previous rig had which protects the strap fabric from the bolt. This winch was rated the same as the original equipment winch but doesnt cut it. Nice ratchet assembly tho...

Seems like a very nice winch, my only gripe is that the strap is very thin. I ordered a Rhino strap and replaced it before anything bad could happen but that adds $20 to the price of the winch. Overall a nice product if it wasnt for the strap.

Works great on my boat trailer. No trouble hauling my 14 Aluminum with 15HP motor out of the water. I replaced my old winch because the Pawl spring kept coming off. The spring on this one is much better. Operation is smoother as well.

works great

Powder coating is nice

Inexpensive and functional. Mounting hardware included and adequate. Do not know how the finish will stand up over time but appears to be excellent value for the money.

This is a quality winch for my purpose of hauling a small two man fishing boat out of the water and onto land. It replaced a cheaper HF winch rated for a bigger load but the teeth on that one did not mesh properly when under a load and it locked up. I had to return that one to HF for a refund. This one worked perfectly with the same installation.
