Goliath ratchet winch. - Horizontal pulling or secured load only. GOLIATH has been designing and making, for more than 30 years, winches that are used in a great number of industries. The manual winch is a safety device governed by strict technical rules and whose design is framed by the European standard EN13157 A1. Here are some criteria to be taken into account to select the right winch. Lifting concept Always select a brake winch. According to the European standard EN13151 A1, a lifting application is characterised by the lifting of a load in connection with a vertical and/or horizontal movement. Thus, towing a car on a trailer, for example, is a lifting operation. The winch associated with this operation must be compliant with the standard EN13157 A1 to be EC marked. It must in particular have a permanent safety brake when loaded (as the range of ratchet winches does not have a self-braking system, it is therefore not suitable for lifting applications). This device is crucial to ensure your safety and the compliance of your facilities. The winch safety brake makes it possible to hold the load when all action on the handle is stopped. The latest generation of GOLIATH safety brakes (internal, permanent and independent from the handle) of the TPV,TA and TS winches offer constant safety, including when the handle is removed (prevents unauthorised access to the winch). Pulling on an inclined plane: Pulling on an inclined plane is a lifting operation Whether the load is self-supported or not, the force, and so the winch capacity, can significantly vary (from 1 to 5 depending on the case).
