The Milemarker H12 Hydraulic Winch...
... RELENTLESS PULLING POWER !
The System Choices
Described briefly below, have a look at the relevant category links for full details and prices for the 3 system types we offer.
Stage 1 - The H12 Power Steering Pump Powered System
The entry-level H12 system is driven by the vehicle's power steering pump. Although not fast, the no-load line speed in the high gear is 9 metres per minute and a loaded speed of around 1.5metres per minute. However, in a typical recovery scenario, this means only a few extra minutes of your time, which is no big deal when you consider the considerable reliability advantage. Plus you can still run your air-con, lights, wipers, heaters, and all the other electrical equipment while you are winching, and with confidence, which is more than you could do with a standard electric winch system.
If you are preparing a vehicle for remote-area expedition use reliability is everything, a mechanical failure in the UK can be sorted by calling out the AA. The same failure in the middle of the bush could be much more serious. So this system represents an excellent contingency measure for emergency or occasional but serious use.
Stage 2 - The H12 ZF74 Pump Powered System
Driven by the legendery quality of the German ZF hydraulic pump, for general off-road recovery use, this system offers unparalelled levels of relentless pulling power with a 10 feet/min line-speed even under full load. The genuine 4.7 tonne pull will get you out of anything, and completely out-perfoms electric winches.
Stage 3 - The H12 PTO (Power Take Off) System
The stage 3 system gets its power from a PTO (power take off) driven pump that attaches to the back of the LT230 transfer gearbox. With around 70bhp now driving your winch rather than a 4-6hp electric motor the pulling power is phenominal. If you need almost unlimited pulling power for extreme off-roading or for commercial work then this is the system to choose. This system represents pulling potential not found among electric winches. It is also used as the driving force behind our famous Type R high-speed competition winch.
Stage 4 - The H12 Type R
for winch challenge use only

Before the development of the Type R the target line-speed was 100ft/min under load and 4.5tonne single line pull. "Type R" stands for rapid, which in comparison with electric winches is a gross understatement. With a line speed of 50 ft/min at 1000rpm, 100ft at 2000rpm and so on, how can it be compared to a battery driven winch?
Like other competition-challenge winches the H12 Type R has a big deep drum, which is crucial in preventing jamming, when the drum gets close to full and the winch is running fast.
Like any high-speed winches the Type R generates heat, but unlike an 'air-insulated' electric motor, it loses it through efficient radiation from constantly circulating fluid and an aluminium oil tank with a huge surface area to radiate the heat away.
