Superwinch: Over 50 Years of Pulling Power and Recovery Innovation
When a vehicle is stuck deep in the mud, perched on a rocky ledge, or loaded onto a trailer in the rain, the last thing anyone wants is gear that fails. That's the problem Superwinch has been solving since 1970. Founded in Connecticut and now part of the Westin Automotive family, Superwinch has spent more than five decades engineering, designing, building, and testing winches for some of the most demanding environments on earth — from remote off-road trails and military operations to agricultural fields and heavy industrial worksites.
Superwinch winches span an enormous range of applications and capacities. Whether you need a compact ATV winch rated at 1,000 lbs or a heavy-duty industrial unit capable of handling 50,000 lbs, the brand has a purpose-built solution. Iconic product families like the Tiger Shark, SX Series, Scorpion, Terra, and Winch2Go have each earned loyal followings among off-roaders, overlanders, and working professionals who depend on reliable pulling power day in and day out. The company's product development team continuously refines these lines using real-world customer feedback, ensuring that each new generation of winch improves on the last.
At the core of Superwinch's lineup are their electric winches and parts. Offering both permanent magnet and series-wound motor configurations, Superwinch electric winches are engineered to deliver consistent, controlled power whether you're making a high-stakes vehicle recovery or loading equipment onto a flatbed. Models are available with steel wire rope or synthetic rope options — the latter being lighter, safer to handle, and less prone to dangerous recoil if it breaks. A comprehensive catalog of replacement parts and accessories means owners can keep their winches performing at peak condition for years.
Superwinch is equally well regarded for its trailer winches and related parts. The S Series trailer winch line, in particular, is purpose-built for pulling vehicles and heavy equipment up onto trailers with precision and ease. These low-profile units are designed to fit inside standard trailer boxes and cabinets, and feature foot-operable freespool clutches and instant-stop motors for controlled, accurate loading every time.
Rounding out the ecosystem is a strong selection of winch controllers. Superwinch offers both wired hand-held remotes and wireless remote kits that allow operators to control their winch from up to 50 feet away — a critical safety feature when working solo or in tight recovery situations. These controllers are built to absorb drops, resist accidental activation, and function reliably even in harsh weather conditions.
From the trails to the job site, Superwinch products are trusted by off-road enthusiasts, agricultural users, military personnel, and industrial operators worldwide. With a commitment to quality that has endured for over half a century, Superwinch remains one of the most respected names in the winching industry.
