Introducing the 3rd Generation 12v Carbon 12K 4x4 12,000lb Electric Winch with full IP68 Rating

With the new Carbon Offroad 12K Winch, the team have decided to follow customer feedback and go all black! It looks fantastic and brings a certain slick but equally mean look to the front of any 4WD rig. If you're still after a touch of red up front Carbon now also include 2 free rope protectors, one in black and the other in red. Simply fit the red one to the end of your rope and you're good to go.

The Carbon stickers on the winch have also been upgraded, providing a sleek new look that will compliment any vehicle out there!

The all new feature packed Ver.3 12000lb (5443kg) Winch from Carbon Offroad delivers a 4WD winch package boasting many extras to make the installation and use of your winch that much easier.

Carbon also have on offer additional parts to ease the burden of the complexities of a winch installation as well. Wired plug extension and isolator switch bracket

The Carbon Winch features a newly upgraded rating of IP68, so your river crossings and mud runs are stress free, featuring a breathable membrane style motor breather for heat expansion and contraction. The Carbon Winch gets your recovery done with ease by using the wireless or wired remote(both included) from the safety and convenience of your driver's seat. IP68 meaning - Ingress Protection - 6 - Can withstand dust and dirt. 8 - Can be submerged under freshwater for 30 minutes up to 1.5mtrs depth, but not during operation.

WHY BUY A CARBON WINCH?

  • Designed by an Australian offroad business for the harsh Aussie and international conditions
  • Fully sealed to resist water, dirt and dust ingress into motor, drum and gearbox mechanisms. Ver.3 series was upgraded to IP68 ingress protection.
  • 12000lb pulling power with a fast line pull ratio of 216:1 using a triple planetary gear set
  • 6.2HP series wound 12 volt electric motor (24 volt option)
  • The Battery Isolator Switch supplied with the kit must be installed. Would you have a non-isolated or fused battery cable running to the back of your vehicle for towing or other Auxiliary uses? No. The winch is the same, it's power feed must be isolated to protect you and your car in the event of a multitude of unforeseen circumstances that can occur, such as a frontal accident, an unfused 500 amp cable can catch fire extremely fast when shorted out against a body component.
  • Wireless remote control unit with a lanyard- FULLY SEALED RECEIVER UNIT built into the control box. Simple to activate by holding both buttons down for 3 seconds to activate the remote control and turns off after 90 seconds of inactivity.
  • The Rotating ring gear clutch design is used for easy low drag free spool. This is arguably the easiest winch to free spool on the market.
  • Electroplated planetary gear sets for long life
  • 3 layer membrane breather unit pre-fitted to the electric motor to allow condensation to evaporate and equalise pressure during heat cycles.
  • Multi Fit Fairlead- there is no need to worry about which suits your bullbar! Simply install as standard fitment or move up to offset the rope outlet by 20mm.
  • All other internals are fully zinc electroplated for corrosion protection.
  • High performance motor brushes with copper impregnated contacts and corrosion plated brush mounts.
  • Smooth ball bearing motor operation with a fully balanced motor armature for superior performance.
  • Utilising a hoist style brake unit mounted to the drum end plate, this provides superior holding power by applying mechanical braking through the gear train with no heat generated in the drum. With no contact to the drum means there is no risk of heat damage to the synthetic rope.
  • 4 position mounting for the control box bracket over the motor, over the drum, on top for flat mounting plates and in front of the winch for the top mounting control box when the winch is mounted vertically. Alternatively, 500mm cables allow remote mounting of the control box separately to the winch

Why Shop at 4x4 Down Under?

We know that you have a lot of options out there, and we’re incredibly grateful that you’re considering spending your hard earned money with us. We like to think we stand out from the crowd in a few ways.

Excellent & Honest Service

We try and provide the best pre and after sales service possible. If you have a question we’re here to help, and if we don’t know the answer we’ll tell you and then do our absolute best to find the answer for you. We’re also here to guide you to the best possible outcome for you. A lot of stores will simply try to up-sell you on the most expensive option. That’s not how we operate. We want to build a relationship with our customers, and the only way to do that is by being honest and direct.

4x4 Down Under is built on honesty and integrity. For example when you make a purchase with us we only charge your account once we confirm the product is ready for dispatch. Although we like to guarantee everything on our store is available we’re not perfect and mistakes do happen. If something turns out to not be available we’ll let you know immediately and you have the option to cancel your order or wait for more stock to arrive. Should you not want to wait the order is voided, and there’s no waiting a week to get your money back (it’s instant!).

Aussie and Proud!

We're Australians, and we like to support our fellow Australians, which is why all our products are sourced locally from the official Australian distributors. Nothing is imported directly and we don't stock any grey imports. This also means that all manufacturer warranties are fully honored by the brands themselves.

No Sales Gimmicks 

When you shop at 4x4 Down Under you don’t have to worry about:
  • Annoying and dishonest ’Sales Timers’ that simply reset every few hours and are there to coerce you into buying.
  • Dishonest “low stock” labels, another coercive sales gimmick.
  • False “John just bought a…” alerts. Our customer alerts (bottom left) are 100% true and we're proud of them.
  • Being bombarded by trust badges and labels everywhere you look that mean nothing. 
  • We don't spam! Your information is safe with us. It will never be shared or sold, or used to fill your inbox with garbage.

Fast Shipping with Insurance!

We've partnered with some of Australia's best couriers and freight agents to ensure your purchase reaches you in super-quick time. Once your order has been dispatched you'll receive tracking information which will allow you to track your order online every step of the way. And if something should happen to your order while in transit you can rest assured that it's insured and you won't lose a dime!

If you still have any doubts feel free to give us a call on 1300 76 86 41, or contact us here. We'd love to hear from you.
