At HES we are regularly asked about winches to pull your toys into the shed or garage. The most common query we get is something like this: "My boat weighs 2 tonnes, so do I need a 2 tonne winch?"

Having access to a quality winch system is crucial when using a boat ramp to launch your vessel. For safe and effective operation, it's important to select the correct winch model based on both the gradient of the boat ramp and also the weight of your boat and trailer combination. While some winch products are capable of working in a range of conditions, having access to the correct model and capacity rating will make it safer and easier for you to get on the water.

Winches are essential for pulling and hauling in industrial and commercial applications. This type of equipment is commonly used in a variety of industries, including drilling, mining, construction and more. Here at HES Winches, we provide our clients with a wide range of winch products from some of the top brands in the industry, including Warn, Pullmaster, Tulsa, Dinamic Oil and OzWinch, to name a few. We can also design and create custom winches to meet your needs as well.
