Engineered for those who refuse to compromise, it stands as the ultimate expression of professional-grade winching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePortable Winch APW6000 Battery-Powered Capstan Winch Developed through a collaboration between Portable Winch Co. and STIHL, the APW6000 combines professional pulling performance with the convenience, low noise and reduced maintenance of battery power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts powerful 3kW brushless electric motor delivers up to 1,500kg of single-line pulling force when used with a STIHL AP 500 S battery. By incorporating a suitable pulley system, the pulling capacity can be increased to a maximum of 3,000kg. The centrifugal clutch and overload protection provide controlled, dependable performance in demanding forestry, arboriculture, land management and off-road applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA three-mode selector allows the operator to balance pulling performance against battery runtime. High mode provides a maximum rope speed of 16m per minute, Medium delivers 13m per minute, while Low Eco mode reduces the speed to 10m per minute to maximise battery life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ribbed 76mm capstan drum increases friction between the rope and drum for improved grip and consistent pulling performance. Unlike a conventional drum winch, the capstan design allows an unlimited rope length to be used, making the APW6000 suitable for pulls over extended distances. It is designed for use with 12mm low-stretch double-braid polyester rope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA stainless-steel rope brake combines a cam cleat with an integrated throttle control. This helps prevent the rope from running backwards while providing smooth and precise control throughout the pull. The protective ground plate and tubular frame help shield the motor and gearbox against impact, abrasion and general site wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowered by STIHL’s professional 36V AP battery platform (see attached Battery Datasheets under Attachments Tab). Batteries and chargers are available separately through STIHL dealers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompact and portable, the winch weighs just 13kg without the battery and can operate in any position. Its aluminium gearbox features heat-treated gears, ball-bearing construction and oil-bath lubrication for long-term reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: The APW6000 is designed for pulling applications only and must not be used for lifting people or suspended loads.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PORTABLE WINCH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54115959177510,"sku":"PW-APW6000","price":1799.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/1477\/0982\/files\/pw-apw6000-a-2000.png?v=1792079322","url":"https:\/\/forestparkgarden.com\/products\/portable-winch-apw6000-battery-pulling-winch-1500kg","provider":"Forest Park \u0026 Garden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
