Ramsey HD234 8,000 lb. Hydraulic Worm Winch w/ Ram-Lok - Jerr-Dan w/ Adapter Rod and Box Frame
Ramsey Omega 8,000 Heavy Duty Planetary Winch
Product Highlights
Automatic Load-Holding Brake
Equipped with a strong, automatic load-holding brake engineered for maximum strength and reliability. It securely holds the winch's full 8,000-lb. rated line capacity during stationary holds and heavy pulls.
Superior Cable Management
Includes an integrated Ramsey spring-loaded roller tensioner that maintains consistent tension on the drum. This prevents wire rope binding, reduces overlapping and significantly extends cable service life.
Low-Profile Envelope for Rollbacks & Car Carriers
Delivers an optimal power-to-weight ratio in a low-profile envelope designed to save space and weight. Its compact footprint allows for clean, easy installation in tight car carrier and rollback mounting setups.
Field-Serviceable Hydraulic Design
Engineered to eliminate job-site downtime, the Ramsey Omega 8 features a streamlined design that can be serviced directly in the field. This field-first construction saves maintenance hours and keeps recovery vehicles on the road.
Dual Free-Spool Clutch Control Options (Air Shift or Manual)
Available with a pneumatic air shift clutch for convenient cab-controlled free-spool actuation or a spring-loaded pull-and-rotate manual shift knob. Both options deliver rapid cable payout for fast, safe roadside setups.
High-Efficiency Planetary Gearing
Combines a rugged 5.1:1 single-stage planetary gear set with a heavy-duty 15.2 cu in./rev. hydraulic motor to deliver line retrieval speeds up to 52 FPM at 17 GPM (1st layer). Engineered for high mechanical efficiency, rapid line recovery and long service life under continuous usage.
