Dual Direction Cable Winders

The Dual Direction Cable Winders are an essential accessory for boat lifts, specifically designed to fit over 2 3/8 in. OD (2 in. ID) drive pipes mounted in the center of the boat lift. Whether you own a boat house style lift or a lift with a single pipe on the side, these cable winders offer convenience and functionality to your lifting system.

Key Features:

1. Easy Installation: Installing the solid cable winder requires removing the drive pipe from the hoist and sliding it into place. On the other hand, the split cable winder can be installed before or after the drive pipe is installed to the boat hoist, providing flexibility during installation.
2. Cable Maintenance: Also known as cable savers, the cable winders are designed to help the cable maintain its shape while under load on the pipe. The shallow grooves of the winders are intended to cradle the lower part of the cable, ensuring its durability and longevity.
3. Compatibility: The dual direction cable winders are compatible with boat lifts that have center-mounted drive pipes, including boat house style lifts. They can also be used with lifts that have one pipe on the side, using (4) pulleys or (2) pulleys on each side.
4. Cable Capacity: The cable winders can accommodate up to 5/16 in. thick 7 x 19 boat lift cable. Each side of the winder has a 16 ft. cable winding split into (2) 7 ft. sections, allowing for a total cable length of 28 ft. The winders can hold 19 wraps of cable per side, providing secure cable management.
5. Durable Construction: Crafted from 6061-T6 US aluminum, these cable winders are built to withstand the demanding marine environment. The material ensures strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting performance, ensuring your boat lift operates smoothly.
6. Design and Dimensions: The dual direction cable winders have a length of 16 in., width and height of 2.875 in. (2 7/8 in.), and a weight of 2.4 lbs. They feature a cable hole size of 0.375 in. (3/8 in.) with two cable holes placed in the center. The cable groove measures 0.28125 in. (9/32 in.), providing a secure fit for the cable.
7. Mounting Hardware: The cable winders come with stainless steel mounting bolts, nuts, and washers for easy and secure installation. The package includes two bolts with a width of 0.3125 in. (5/16 in.) and a length of 3.25 in. (3 1/4 in.), along with two nuts and washers of the same size.

Note: It’s important to be aware that the cable winders will increase the outside diameter of the drive pipe, which may decrease the hoist’s and motor’s rated lift capacity.
