Superwinch have been synonymous with quality winches for 36 years. We stock the popular EP range of winches along with the legendary Husky, still a British built commercially-rated winch  for over 20 years, always ready for the toughest of winching tasks. We have some background information on the EP range below.

The EP9.0 and EPi9.0 have rated line pulls of 9,000 pounds, 4.6 horsepower series-wound motors, and 125 feet of 5/16" diameter aircraft grade wire rope.

All EP Series models feature reliable, sealed switching solenoids, power-in/power-out operation, and include a free-spooling drum, efficient three-stage planetary gearbox, automatic mechanical brake, hand-held remote, roller fairlead and pulley block, forged hook with safety catch, hand saver, battery cables with terminals, in either 12 or 24 volt configurations.

Installation is quick and easy with only two wires to connect. Solenoids on EP units are fitted pre-mounted to the winch motor but can be easily mounted remotely. The EPi units have fully integrated solenoids, also reducing installation time. All models are supplied with the newly-designed rugged rubber handheld remote for operation up to 15 feet away.

The EP series of winches will feature a three-stage planetary gear system. That blue cylindrical object to the right of the gears is the EP's brake.

The brake on the EP9.0 is not contained inside the drum. Rather, the brake is situated outside the drum and opposite the winch's motor. This means that while this unit is braked when not in operation (just like all planetary winches), the winch's drum will not get hot and melt synthetic winch lines. The Superwinch EP9.0 is the first planetary-gear winch to have such a feature and such compatibility with synthetic winch lines. With the EP, you can power in or power out with a synthetic winch line, all without fear that you are going to melt your synthetic winch line.
