Pierce Winch

Looking to Buy a Winch this Summer.

Looks like I can get a Pierce 15,000 lb. pull Hydraulic for less than $1200. 00

I haven't heard of Pierce and was looking for good or bad with Pierce.

Don't need to hear about the Differance between Hydraulic or Electric.

Thanks for your Time and Help.

Pierce makes a very good winch. They are frequently used on wreckers and roll backs. I bought a 12,500lb Pierce and put in on an old International - I impressed a lot of people with that winch. One time I sank the truck in the gooiest mud hole I have ever seen - the winch slowly pulled the truck right through - like a bulldozer pushing mud. It was very impressive! Again, as you probably know, it is not a fast winch, but very strong and durable.



Hope this helps!

I had a 9000lb electric pierce winch on my trailer. It didn't last very long, and had to replace it with a 13,500lb Ramsey winch. I not sure how well thier Hydraulic winches are. Hydraulic is definitely the way to go. They are alot harder to burn up.

M Murray,

Thanks for your time.

It seems to be the Electric are faster for short hauls but from what I've been finding as I read between the lines that for a lot of continous work the Hydraulic in the way to go.

Pierce wasn't as much a problem as being Electric?
