Trailer Winches Buying Guide
Trailer winches are essential tools for securing cargo on flatbed trailers, utility trailers, and other transport vehicles. By pairing a trailer winch with high-quality straps, you can safely anchor loads and prevent shifting during transport. At Zip’s, we offer a wide range of trailer winches including flatbed winches, strap winches, cargo winches, and tie down winches to meet the needs of both professional and recreational users.
What Are Trailer Winches?
A trailer winch is a device mounted to a trailer that allows you to tighten straps and secure cargo efficiently. They are designed to work with web straps, ratchet straps, and other tie-down systems. Trailer winches come in various styles, including sliders, weld-on models, winch track systems, and portable options. Some are designed with low profiles for unobtrusive mounting and easier cargo loading.
Types of Trailer Winches
Understanding the different types of trailer winches can help you choose the best solution for your application:
- Slider Winches: These winches slide along a track to provide adjustable attachment points for straps, offering flexibility for uneven or irregular loads.
- Weld-On Winches: Permanently mounted to the trailer, these winches provide a strong, fixed point for securing heavy loads. Explore the Zip's Weld-On Winch for a reliable option.
- Winch Track Systems: Designed to integrate with L-track or C-track on flatbed trailers, these winches offer versatile positioning and ratcheting capabilities. Check out the Ancra Ratcheting Double L Track Sliding Winch or the Ancra Storable Ratcheting C Track 7mm Sliding Web Winch.
- Portable Winches: Ideal for temporary setups or trailers without built-in mounting points, portable winches can be moved and reused as needed.
