System One - AWW-4 | Work Winch, 4 - pack
The Work Winch® is the most universal and easiest to use tie-down system ever made. Work Winches® "plug in" to any I.T.S.® series rack in 2 to 3 minutes. They are constructed of aluminum alloy and stainless steel with a PVC bearing. It is the only rust-free tie-down system made and has a nearly unlimited lifespan. This is not a bolted-on aftermarket accessory, but an integral part of a System One I.T.S.® series ladder rack.
Everything you need is always right there - even the handle. Just lift the pawl and pull out as much strap as you need. Place the strap around the load and hook it to an anchor hole or crossmember. Take up the slack with the handwheel and tighten firmly using the handle.
The handle can be kept permanently on the shaft, or it can be left in a toolbox and used only when needed. When hanging it allows the shaft to rotate freely within it; when pushed forward, it will engage and operate the winch.
- 7½' x 1½” POLYESTER STRAP A 7½’ x 1½” polyester strap is used with our Work Winches because they have a higher tensile strength than nylon and undergo significantly less elongation in wet weather. They are more expensive than nylon but their performance and longevity make them worthwhile. There is a vinyl coated hook on the end made from 3/8” tempered steel.

ALUMINUM ALLOY BODY The body of the Work Winch is cast from 356 aluminum alloy and then heat treated. Its breaking strength is over 10 times its rated capacity of 400 lbs. The shaft of the winch body is turned on a lathe to a diameter that is a few thousandths of an inch less than the inside diameter of the PVC bearing it rides in.
- ALUMINUM HANDLE This special handle works better than the typical metal bar used in winches. It is always connected to the winch shaft and the keyhole incorporated in it is designed to both engage the hex on the winch shaft for tightening and to disengage from the hex for free rotation of the shaft. At the same time, it remains connected to the shaft for convenience so that you never have to search for it.
