(March 1, 2023; Calabasas, CA) Harbor Freight Tools is introducing two new upgraded electric winches to its popular BADLAND™ line: the 9,500 lb., and 12,000 lb. ZXR Truck/SUV Winch with Wire Rope.
The upgrades include increased line speed of up to 70% over the previous generation for faster winching, and improved wire routing from each control box for easier installation.
Essential for off-road vehicle recovery, both winches have a series-wound motor that stays cool during long winch pulls. A three-stage planetary gear system provides no-load line speeds of up to 26.5 ft. per minute for the 12,000 lb. winch, and up to 25.9 ft. per minute for the 9,500 lb. winch.
Both models feature an automatic load-holding brake for added safety and have an IP-66 rating for all-weather performance in mud, sand, or snow.
Additional features include a roller fairlead for smooth winching, and a one-piece cast aluminum tie-plate for rigidity and durability. A 12 ft. ergonomic handheld remote control is included.
Ruggedly built for tough off-road conditions, both powerful ZXR winches have a 65 ft. wire rope made of high-quality aircraft-grade steel and a streamlined control box that is compatible with and easily mounted to most trucks and SUVs, including those with tight bumpers. Mounting hardware, hook, and a hook strap are included.
The BADLAND ZXR Truck/SUV winches are currently priced at $379.99 (12,000 lb.) and $349.99 (9,500 lb.). They are available in-store and online, only at Harbor Freight.
