Balfor BF Forestry Winch

Balfor Forestry Winches are available in versions 3 ton, 3.5 tons, 4.5 ton, 5.5 ton, 7.5 ton and 9 tons.

All models from the BF 35 (3.5 ton) are fitted as standard with top and lower pulley and models from BF 45 upward with a tow hitch. The winches are equipped with single or multiple dry clutch disc (depending on model) for longer life and a smoother engagement. They are also fitted with a full width butt plate and window guard as standard. Balfor Winches use an automatically locking band brake with adjustable preload to allow for easy unwinding.

R models have a lower winch speed reduced to 0.6m/s.

H models are Electrohydraulic controlled which reduces user fatigue and allows for an upgrade to a wireless remote control if required. The HUD model  have a hydraulic cable unwinder and are available on models 5.5 ton upwards for greater levels of productivity. All cable is double flatted type offering more flexibility and greatly reduces the chances of kinks in the cable giving a longer service life.

The winches have storage for chains and accessories and also include a chainsaw and axle holders. H models can also be fitted with throttle cable to allow control via the tractor.
