At CTO Industries, our WARN ELECTRIC WINCHES collection is your go-to source for premium electric winches that excel across terrain and applications. From rugged off-road recovery to industrial heavy-duty use, Warn winches deliver uncompromising performance, durability, and user safety. Whether you're preparing for expeditions in the Australian outback or servicing remote recovery operations, WARN electric winches are engineered to handle the toughest demands with ease.
Founded in the mid-20th century, WARN redefined vehicle recovery with the pioneering Belleview electric winch, capable of 6,000 lb. recovery even when the vehicle engine was stalled. Since then, WARN has introduced a range of electric winches—from compact industrial units to heavyweight truck winches exceeding 18,000 lb. capacity. Today, WARN continues as an icon in electric winch innovation, offering advanced features like IP68 waterproofing, series-wound motors, and modular design for unmatched performance and reliability.
Every WARN winch is crafted to deliver:
Industry-standard durability with heavy-duty series-wound motors paired with hardened steel planetary gear trains.
Superior waterproofing with IP68 standards, keeping them resilient in mud, dust, and water.
Efficient electric control with built-in Albright contactors and wireless or wired remote capability.
Wide capacity range, from lighter VR series to heavyweights like the M12 or 16.5ti, perfect for 4WD adventure and industrial deployments.
A balanced blend of performance and value, the VR EVO range is perfect for mid-sized trucks, SUVs, and four-wheel adventures. Models like the VR EVO 8-S, 10-S, and 12-S offer 8,000 to 12,000 lb capacity, powerful series-wound motors, IP68 waterproofing, and reliable Albright contactors—all compact, durable, and affordable.
Premium mid-frame winches designed for intense use on trucks and off-road setups. ZEON 10-S and ZEON 12 models offer superior build quality, efficient gear trains, and robust durability. The ZEON 12, with a massive 12,000 lb pull and 80 ft of steel rope, is ideal for heavy-duty applications.
The ZEON Platinum series is the pinnacle of WARN winch technology. These winches feature advanced wireless remotes that monitor battery voltage, motor temperature, and control accessories. With faster line speeds, alloy drums, and IP68 sealing, ZEON Platinum models deliver top-of-the-line durability and functionality.
For the toughest jobs, WARN offers large-frame winches with up to 18,000 lb capacity. The Industrial Series G1 and G2 feature 12 V or 24 V series-wound motors, rugged contactor packs, self-locking brakes, and compliance with SAE and NFPA safety standards.
WARN’s utility winches, such as the 1500 AC Utility Winch, bring electric assistance to workshops and lighter applications with 1500 lb capacity and AC plug-and-play convenience. The PullzAll portable winches are perfect for small lifts, installations, and workshop needs.
The WARN VR EVO 10-S is praised for its reliability, IP68 sealing, safe synthetic rope, and straightforward installation, backed by a lifetime mechanical and seven-year electrical warranty. Overlanders and professionals consistently rate ZEON winches as top performers for their advanced engineering and long service life. Industrial G-series winches are trusted in emergency response, fleet operations, and other heavy-duty environments where reliability is critical.
Selecting the right winch for your vehicle and application is key:
Match capacity to vehicle weight by using 1.5 times the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) as a guide. For trucks and heavy rigs, the ZEON or Heavyweight series is ideal.
Consider terrain and conditions. Coastal and wet environments require IP68 waterproofing. For deep terrain and technical recoveries, synthetic ropes and advanced wireless controls are best.
Choose the right configuration. The VR series is known for affordability and simplicity, ZEON for premium build quality, Platinum for advanced remote features, and the Industrial Series for fleet and commercial applications.
Ensure easy support and parts availability, as WARN has global coverage for parts and accessories.
Pairing your WARN electric winch with the right accessories enhances performance and safety. Essentials include:
Certified synthetic or steel ropes.
Snatch blocks, dampeners, and fairleads for controlled and efficient recovery.
Mounting plates or integrated bumpers from trusted brands like ARB, Rhino, or KMC.
Wireless remotes, contactor upgrades, and tailored wiring harnesses.
At CTO Industries, we also offer bundles with everything you need for installation, including mounting kits, wiring, and detailed guides for vehicles like Toyota LandCruiser, Prado, Hilux, Nissan Navara, and Ford Ranger.
Proper use and care ensure your WARN winch performs flawlessly when you need it most. Always:
Inspect your cable or rope for damage before use.
Wear gloves during operation.
Use a dampener to minimize recoil in case of failure.
Keep your winch clean and dry when not in use.
Follow regular maintenance schedules for optimal performance.
