Force 5 Offshore Man Rider Series Winch - Winches

Force 5® “Offshore” Man Rider® Series
3180 to 6875 lb (1445 to 3125 kg) capacity

Known worldwide as the standard for meeting the toughest personnel lifting requirements in the offshore industry. Dual rated for personnel and utility lifting applications, these winches have Type Approval or Independent Review certificates issued by the classification societies of DNV, ABS, or LRS. Meet NPD, NMD and Den regulations for personnel lifting operations. Oil field tough to weather the harsh environments in marine applications.

Standard Features

Automatic disc brake for positive, self-adjusting operation
Enclosed oil bath “wet” disc brake is fully sealed for protection against salt spray, dirt or moisture, providing trouble-free operation over thousands of lifting cycles
Manual band brake for additional braking by the operator
Galvanized drum guard supports the weight of a 200 lb person
24” drum length provides ample wire rope storage for most applications
Data book available upon request
Top layer rated line pull. A Force 5 winch always pulls of lifts its “rated load” at any layer of wire rope
Internal gearbox and disc brake combination offer superior load control when compared w/ all other types of air winches
Compact, space-saving frame design and fabricated alloy steel drum fits into tight spaces
Versatile design for special applications requiring variable drum length and wire rope storage
Standard operating temperature range is 0°C through 60°C
Minimum 18:1 drum diameter to wire rope diameter ratio reduces wire rope wear
Dual rated 8:1 design factor for manrider rating; 5:1 design factor for utility rating

Note: Adding “-E” to model states compliance w/ European Machinery Directive.
* “-E” models for the European Union allow one lift capacity rating only; i.e. Only personnel lift rating is allowed for both personnel and utility applications
** Utility rating only for those countries that allow dual ratings, e.g. USA
