Up next Dometic PLB40: The 48-Hour Reserve Published on August 07, 2018 Author Tread Staff Tags axon winch, warn axon, warn axon 5500, warn axon winch, Share article Facebook 0 Twitter 0 Mail 0 Go Solenoid-Free with AXON Winches All-new from Warn is the new Axon series of winches designed for ATVs and side-by-sides. Gone are the days of solenoid, with the new Motactor that is the first of its kind. The Motactor is the combination of an electric motor and a digital contractor, that increases performance, drops installation time and increases feedback to the user on the current state of affairs with the winch. Its super compact nature means that install time drops by at least 50%, and the digital control allows for the monitoring of speed, load and temperature of the motor. Subscribe to our weekly newsletter A built-in load limiter also means that you cannot push the Axon beyond its limits and ensures years of reliability. The compact digital design also means that it’s an all-metal enclosure and is fully sealed and waterproofed. Available in three different pulling weights of 3,500 lbs., 4,500 lbs. and 5,500 lbs., as well as a choice of steel cable or Spydura synthetic rope—you will be hard pressed to find a better lifelong investment in a winch than this. There are cheaper box store versions out there, sure, but you can always count on a Warn winch to pull you out of trouble, no matter the situation.
