Dutton-Lainson 3FKE5 1100 lb Hand Winch

The Dutton-Lainson 3FKE5 is a manually operated spur-gear hand winch rated for a 1,100 lb first-layer load capacity. It features a 3.7:1 gear ratio and a permanent handle attachment on an open steel body finished in black. The unit ships with a compatible web strap and operates without a brake or clutch mechanism.

Suited for straight pulling jobs where a brake is

This winch suits users who need a simple spur-gear unit for pulling loads up to 1,100 lb and can manage the handle under load without a locking brake. It is not for applications that require a clutch for free-spooling or a brake to hold the load when the handle is released. Buyers needing controlled descent or hands-free load holding should look at a different design.

3.7:1 spur gear ratio with no brake

The single specification that decides fit is the 3.7:1 spur gear ratio combined with the absence of a brake. This ratio determines the mechanical advantage and line speed, while the no-brake design means the operator must maintain handle control at all times. Verify that both the ratio and the no-brake configuration match the intended pulling task before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1100 lb capacity model or a different load rating?

This model provides a 1100 lb capacity on the first layer and when fully wound, with a single 3.7:1 gear ratio and no clutch or brake.

What does the 1100 lb load rating mean when the winch is mounted on a trailer?

The 1100 lb rating applies to the first layer of line on the drum; pulling power decreases as more layers build up during use.

How does the spur gear and 3.7:1 ratio affect pulling speed and effort?

The spur gear with a 3.7:1 ratio gives mechanical advantage for heavy loads, requiring more handle turns per foot of line retrieved.
