Why are Sherpa winches different to the competition?

• Tried and Tested - These winches have been designed and built with many years experience in the winching and lifting business. These winches have been through many stages of testing and improvements to deliver a reliable product offered to Sherpa 4x4 customers. These winches have been witnessed to perform under water in the muddiest rainforests on the planet recovering laden trucks to safety. Sealed to water and mud ingress* they perform reliably in the toughest outback conditions.

• Tough & Durable - The Colt winch is designed to survive in all conditions, with 316 stainless steel fitting and cross beams this winch will stand up to all environments.

• Braking Design - Beware of cheap imitations! Many winches on the market use a 'Brake in drum' design which causes heat to build up in the winch drum damaging synthetic rope. 'Brake in Drum' winches are low cost and not designed for synthetic rope, this will become obvious at the most inconvenient time. Also avoid 'Brake in Motor' hoist style winches, these brakes are not suited to extreme offroad 4x4 applications and are inferior to the Sherpa 4x4 design. Sherpa Winches are compatible with all types of synthetic rope as the brake is designed into the gearbox ensuring a long life and well lubricated design. This innovative design results in a trouble and heat free winching and braking combination. Any experienced winch operator will understand the importance of a strong, reliable winch brake, it's definitely not something you want to fail when you're perched precariously on the side of a hill.

• Quality gearboxes - Other brands use sintered steel to make their gears. In this process heat and pressure is used to cast shapes from powdered steel. Sintered gears are no where near as strong as gears which are CNC cut from quality billet steel. Sherpa specify and demand the highest quality components for every step of the winch build meaning we can deliver stronger winches which last.  

• Electrics - Sherpa 4x4 winches come standard with fully sealed, water tight, heavy duty, genuine Albright solenoids. The number one failure for winches is the solenoid so why use anything but the best. Sherpa only offer Albright solenoids across our complete range of winches because they work. Don't waste your time with imitations, demand the best. 

• Powerful- Sherpa 4x4 winches come with massive series wound motors featuring higher amounts of copper in the winding's then others. By specifying the best motors across all our winches as a standard component, you are ensured a more durable winch motor which can withstand the extreme conditions winching brings. The fully engineer designed frame and gearbox results in incredible winching power. Why settle for 9,000lb when more pulling power is available. When other winches are stalling, the Sherpa 4x4 units are still loading up.

• Simplicity - Sherpa winches are supplied with the parts and materials making installation easy for the home mechanic. Made to fit the common winch bars in Australia you'll be amazed how quickly it can be integrated into your set-up.

• Fairleads - Depending on if you're after the synthetic rope or the steel cable, Sherpa 4x4 will match the fairlead to your selection.

• Warranty and Parts - Sherpa 4x4 offers a 5 Year warranty on the 12,000lb winch range. We also keep a complete range of affordable spares to get you out of trouble if ever required.

Genuine Albright Solenoids

All Sherpa 4x4 winches come with genuine Albright solenoids! Incorporated into our electrics is a custom made version of the DC88P solenoid designed specifically by Albright International for the Sherpa 4x4 control boxes. With 70 years experienced in contactor design, these are by far the best winch solenoids available. Capable of handling up to 800 amps, almost twice the maximum capacity of the winch. Contact plating is second to none, increasing the duty cycle over other winches. As seen in our water submersion testing videos the Albright solenoids can be run for significant time under water without moisture ingress. The cheap Chinese solenoids used in the majority of winches will fail under extreme conditions and under high amperage load.

Options:

• Plug n Play' Wireless remote kits
• Sherpa 4x4 recommends the use of a battery isolation switch on all installations. A 500A continuous rated switch suitable with Sherpa 4x4 winches can also be supplied.
• Extended 3m battery cables
