Crab Winch (Hand Operated)

The ABM manual (hand operated) crab winch is used for pulling heavy loads, erecting pillars and poles, tensioning electric lines. It is also used for lifting loads. The crab winch is a multi geared machine, viz., driver gear, reduction gear, pinion gear and main load gear mounted on two ball bearings. These are fabricated from tested steel, machined and teeth cut by hob. The rope drum is made of MS pipe welded at both ends with flanges. Body plates are MS tested plates conforming to IS: 226-1975. Two units of brakes are provided for better safety: a pawl and ratchet brake to prevent reverse movement of the drum on load; and a shoe type brake with replaceable brake-lining for extra safety. The speed can be varied by shifting gears. Two operating handles are provided with each machine. These handles are well designed to pull heavy loads with the least efforts. All machines are tested at 25% overload.
