Thompson Winches

Lynx
Self Tailing Capstan Winch

The Thompson lynx is a small, lightweight and portable self tailing capstan winch. Designed to meet the exacting standards of industry today, it is ideal for laying and pulling underground cables through trenches and ducts.

The Lynx is powered by a single cylinder 13 horse power petrol engine and is capable of achieving a maximum line pull of 1,000kg at high speeds, making it extremely versatile and suitable for a variety of applications.

The manually operated spooling device Further enhances the machines ease of use and cable control by one operator. The hauling bond being kept in-line and synchronised with the pulley wheels during all pulling applications.

The complete design incorporates a light, yet strong frame work and a conveniently located toolbox, keeping tools readily at hand. An integral telescopic boom acts both as o chock during hauling and assists in the manoeuvrability of the Lynx on-site, the latter being further assured with the fitting of pneumatic rough terrain tyres as standard.
