BullDog Winch Co offers not just winches for pulling/towing needs, but hoists for vertical lifting as well! It is very important to never use a winch for hoisting and vice versa. Hoists are not engineered for pulling loads, but lifting and holding them instead. This 1,200 LB Hoist is the perfect solution for your lifting needs. BullDog Winch offers their hoists with both synthetic and wire rope options and come with a gearing and braking system that are specifically built to lift and hold loads and backs them with a 1 year limited warranty.
