Henan Yixing Lifting Machinery Co., Ltd. is a professional supplier of material handling equipment.
Compact Hydraulic Winch for Tow Trucks and Vehicle Recovery

Compact Hydraulic Winch for Tow Trucks and Vehicle Recovery

Our hydraulic winch is designed specifically for flatbed tow trucks, rollbacks, and heavy‑duty recovery vehicles, providing reliable pulling power without the heat build‑up and duty cycle limits of electric winches. This hydraulic winch operates off the vehicle's existing hydraulic system or a separate power pack, delivering line pulls of up to 20,000 lbs or more with a low‑profile design to fit between frame rails. The hydraulic winch includes a multi‑disc automatic brake that holds load tension securely, a free‑spooling clutch for rapid cable deployment, and a two‑speed option for high‑speed line retrieval. For a hydraulic winch manufactured for continuous commercial use, with remote pendant control and bolt‑pattern dimensions matching your truck brand (Peterbilt, Kenworth, Freightliner), contact our vehicle equipment specialists for an OEM winch kit.

Why choose us?

Integrated Design for High Efficiency

Our IYJ series hydraulic winch features a patented integrated design combining the valve block, motor, brake, planetary gear reducer, drum, and clutch. This compact integration provides high starting torque, good low-speed stability, and low noise, reducing leak points and maintenance complexity while maximizing reliability for mining and offshore applications.

Fail-Safe Braking for Critical Loads

The hydraulic winch is equipped with a multi-disc automatic brake and lever-operated clutch mechanism. The spring-applied brake (released by hydraulic pressure) ensures the winch holds the rated load indefinitely when power is not supplied, preventing uncontrolled load descent. This safety feature is crucial for heavy operations like towing and heavy equipment recovery.

Versatile Mounting for Field Applications

Our hydraulic winch can be either foot-mounted or side-mounted, providing adaptability for installation on various vehicles and chassis. The winch鈥檚 drum is designed for high rope capacity, and models are available with pulling capacities ranging from 500 kg to 50,005 kg, making it suitable for everything from small tuggers to large-scale pipeline pulling.

The hydraulic boom winch is an integrated lifting and positioning system that combines the reach of a hydraulic articulating boom with the pulling power of a high-torque winch. This equipment is a game-changer for trenchless construction and underground utility installation, where precise load control is the priority. The system features a self-deploying hydraulic boom that allows operators to easily adjust the lifting depth up to a working depth of 18-20 feet at the touch of a button, fine-tuning the position along all three axes for exact positioning. Operators can set the pull force anywhere from fractional ton loads up to 12 tons or more, allowing the winch to handle everything from pulling drill stem to lifting heavy valve assemblies into place. For mining operations, hydraulic boom winches secure heavy drill rigs when operating on steep slopes, stabilizing the equipment in places normally unreachable. For a specialized hydraulic boom winch configured for your heavy installation project, please contact our heavy equipment specialists for a custom solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

What safety features are integrated into your double girder overhead cranes?

Our double girder overhead cranes are equipped with an overload protection system that automatically halts lifting when the weight exceeds the rated load, preventing structural damage [1†L18-L20]. They also feature a ratchet friction-type one-way brake for automatic braking under heavy load, and limit switches to prevent over-travel [0†L14-L16]. All electrical components are designed with self-contained explosion-proof capabilities (in applicable models), and emergency stop functions are standard for instant motor cut-off [21†L39-L73].
The portable aluminum gantry crane is a lightweight lifting device made of aluminum alloy that solves the common pain points of traditional lifting tools being heavy, clumsy, and difficult to move [4†L19-L24]. Compared to steel gantries, aluminum models are significantly lighter—up to half the weight—while still offering impressive load capacities, with 1-ton models weighing just 33 kilograms for portable aluminum gantry cranes. The aluminum construction provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for cleanrooms, coastal environments, and food processing plants. Additionally, these cranes are designed to be easily assembled, disassembled, and moved as needed [4†L19-L52].
Our manufacturing facility has a maximum crane lifting capacity of 600 tons, with a factory area exceeding 3,000 square meters and more than 1,000 processing devices [2†L22-L23]. We have the capability to produce cranes with capacities up to 600 tons, and our double girder gantry cranes are designed to withstand large loads, typically ranging from several tons to hundreds of tons using box girder or truss configurations [1†L5-L7]. A double beam crane, such as an overhead or gantry crane, includes a hoist and trolley system that can lift and move materials both vertically and horizontally for enormous weight requirements [4†L46-L83].
We provide a comprehensive range of yacht lift systems to suit any marina or boatyard configuration. The main types include vertical lifts for budget-friendly operation, cradle lifts for better hull support, beamless lifts, overhead systems, as well as pile-mount, post-mount, and side-mount configurations [12†L14-L15]. For retrofits and tight spaces, we offer modular spider crane yacht lifts. Yacht lifts use soft and firm lifting belts that protect the hull surface from scratches, and the main structure includes a traveling wheel block, hoisting mechanism, steering mechanism, hydraulic transmission system, and electric control system [6†L11-L45].
Remote operation allows the crane operator to control lifting, moving, and lowering from a safe position away from the crane, flexibly avoiding collisions with other equipment or objects in a narrow working space [16†L4-L8]. Modern systems integrate load sensors with digital feedback mechanisms to adjust speed and torque as needed during operation, with intuitive interfaces allowing users to create lift presets for different load weights [12†L18-L21]. Using remote control systems also reduces the need for signal personnel and eliminates pendant cable hazards, while smart systems have significantly lowered accident rates: from 4.2 to 0.7 incidents per 10,000 lifts when utilizing such technology [6†L7-L8]. In addition, gantry cranes are moving toward automation with sensor fusion and AI-based path optimization, further reducing human error [16†L10-L46].

Customer Reviews

George Henderson

Our construction equipment yard uses two Henan Yixing hydraulic winches rated for 12 tons of line pull. The IYJ series hydraulic winch features planetary gear reduction system that multiplies hydraulic motor torque while maintaining compact dimensions. It's used to drag scrap machinery onto our processing line. The constant pulling power at low speeds works perfectly. The winches are easily foot-mounted for adaptability and ease of maintenance on different vehicle configurations.

Patrick Kelly

We needed a specialized winch with specific line speed and rope capacity requirements. Henan Yixing designed and built a custom hydraulic winch just for us. The 4 speed hydraulic winch provides dual-range capability for high-torque low-speed pulling and low-torque high-speed mode with pilot-operated selector valve. The engineering team communicated throughout the build process, and the final product exceeded our expectations. The normally closed friction-type brake offers high braking torque and safe operation.
