The Carbon 12K

Built tough for Australia’s harshest off-road conditions, this 12,000lb winch delivers the performance, reliability, and durability serious 4WDers demand.

Engineered by an Australian offroad company, it’s designed to thrive in rugged environments — from muddy tracks and steep climbs to deep water crossings. Whether you’re adventuring locally or tackling international terrain, this winch is made to get you home.

Sealed to an IP68 rating, the winch resists water, dirt, and dust intrusion into the motor, drum, and gearbox — ensuring consistent performance in all weather conditions.

Under the hood, a high-output 6.2HP series wound 12V motor (24V option available) powers a triple planetary gear set with a fast 216:1 ratio; delivering smooth, high-torque recovery capability with rapid line speeds.

Every component is built for longevity.

Zinc electroplated internals and planetary gears fight corrosion head on, while the motor features high-performance brushes with copper-impregnated contacts and plated brush mounts for long-lasting electrical efficiency.

The balanced motor armature and ball bearing operation ensure quiet, reliable performance under load. To handle pressure fluctuations and moisture during heat cycles, a triple-layer breather system comes pre-installed on the motor.

The rotating ring gear clutch provides low-drag freespooling and smooth engagement, while the hoist-style braking system applies mechanical braking through the gear train — with no heat generated at the drum, keeping your synthetic rope safe from heat damage.

Ease of use is built in.

The wireless remote system features a fully sealed receiver unit integrated into the control box. It’s quick to activate (just hold both buttons for 3 seconds) and powers down automatically after 90 seconds of inactivity to preserve battery life.When you choose this winch, you’re not just getting performance — you’re getting long-term peace of mind.

Installation is flexible and straightforward.

The Multi-Fit fairlead suits most bullbars and allows for a 20mm rope outlet offset. The control box bracket offers four mounting options — over the motor, over the drum, on top plates, or in front of the winch; 500mm cables let you mount the control box remotely when needed.
