Superwinch Talon 18000 is a game changer and has altered the outcome of the global winch industry.

AKA The Winch of Prey, designed and engineered by Superwinch. This winch has one of the industry’s best-sealed vehicle recovery winch assemblies.

IP67 Standards

All seals on the winch meet IP67 standards.

The seals are located from the outermost end of the high-performance motor and groundbreaking solenoid to the 2-stage planetary and 2-stage spur gearbox.

The sealed 5.2 and 6.0 HP motors deliver a quick but safe 62 FPM line speed at a low 75 amp draw. Heat sink-styled motor cap maintains low temperatures under the heaviest loads. The solenoid will keep out water, mud, snow and dust. In addition, it has a patented venting feature. The venting allows the contacts to resist water and release contact-damaging internal condensation.

VS4 Solenoid

The VS4 Solenoid (Vented Submersible and Stabilized with Sealed Socket) is the best winch solenoid in the world. The VS4 sits inside this modern-styled rugged enclosure. The innovative “Dual-stop” 100% load-holding brake design provides zero drag on cable. The Dual Stop is located inside the gearbox, away from the drum. The load-holding brake design eliminates heat transfer to the synthetic rope.

A unique steel drum with high tensile material resists the unique loading characteristic of the optional synthetic 3/8″ x 80′ rope. It is rated at 17600 lbs ensuring a safe pull.

There’s an ergonomically shaped hand-held sealed remote with an LED light for winching at night. The control remote also meets P67 standards. The chrome-plated aluminium ergo-free spool knob lifts and turns effortlessly, rotating in 45-degree increments for custom and “in bumper” applications. The laser-etched aerodynamically shaped extruded aluminium tie bars reduce weight. In addition, the three tie-bar construction adds strength and structural rigidity between drum supports.

The tie-bar bracket includes steel-lined rubber insulated mounts to stabilize the solenoid and reduce vibration and fatigue.

Limited Lifetime Warranty

Superwinch Talon 18000 has a Limited Lifetime Warranty, which includes an industry-first 3-year warranty on all electrical components, the absolute BEST in the INDUSTRY!
