Overview
Rated to pull 600 lbs, the TYT THWB600-C is a manual crank winch sized for small boat, jet ski, ATV and UTV trailers rather than heavier towing jobs.
This is a manual, two-way ratchet winch, not a powered or electric unit, so pulling force comes from cranking the handle rather than a motor. The 3.2:1 gear ratio and hardened steel gears are what let a hand crank move a load in this weight class without excessive effort. It mounts to a standard bolt pattern, so fit depends on matching that mounting base to whatever trailer frame or winch stand it is going onto.
- 600 lb rated hand crank winch with 3.2:1 gear ratio
- 6 meter, 4.0mm steel cable included
- Standard mounting base sized 4.52 x 3.14 inches
- Two-way ratchet with safety pawl mooring hook
Who it's for
Small boat, jet ski, ATV and UTV owners needing a manual winch to load trailers are the target here, not anyone towing or lifting loads above the 600 lb rating. The ratchet also works for dragging light loads or lifting objects within that same capacity.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Two-way ratchet pulls and holds in both directions
- Zinc-black plating resists rust on wet trailer use
- Curved, anti-slip handle reduces hand fatigue while cranking
- Manual crank only, no powered or electric option
- 600 lb rating limits it to light trailers
Performance notes
A curved handle turns hardened steel gears at a 3.2:1 ratio, which is what lets a hand crank generate enough pulling force to load boats or personal watercraft onto a trailer. The mooring hook and ratchet pawl work in both directions, so the same winch can pay out or reel in a load and hold it in place between cranks. Zinc-black plating on the housing is aimed at resisting rust from the wet, salt-exposed use boat trailers usually see.
