KFI Assault Series Winch 3500 lbs. - Synthetic Cable
Part #: KFIAS-35Need a winch you can actually rely on when you're stuck? The KFI Assault Series 3500 is built for exactly that, dynamic and mechanical braking working together so the load holds steady, water-resistant seals keeping dirt and moisture out of the internals, and a heavy-duty all-metal turn clutch that isn't going to strip out on you after a season of hard use.What you get with this one:
Dynamic and mechanical braking system for reliable holding power. Water-resistant seals to keep the elements out of the motor and gearbox. Standard 4-hole mounting pattern, so it drops onto most existing setups without hunting for a special bracket. Heavy-duty all-metal turn clutch built to hold up over time. Synthetic cable instead of steel, lighter to handle and safer if it ever snaps under load.The specs:
Motor's a 12-Volt DC, 1.15hp permanent magnet setup, running a 180:1 gear ratio. The synthetic cable measures 3/16 in. diameter by 50 ft. length. Mounting bolt pattern is 3.00 in. x 4.875 in. on a standard 4-hole layout. Whole unit measures 13.62 in. L x 4.44 in. D x 4.76 in. H and weighs in at 25.6 lbs. Rated line pull comes in at 3,500 lbs.Why grab this one
3,500 lbs of rated pull covers most ATV recovery situations without going overkill on weight or price. The synthetic cable's a real upgrade over steel too, easier on the hands, doesn't hold a memory-curl the way steel does, and won't fling dangerous shrapnel if it fails under tension.Before you install
Double check your mount plate or existing bracket matches the 4-hole, 3.00 in. x 4.875 in. pattern before ordering. Most ATV winch mounts follow this standard, but it's worth confirming against your specific setup first.Also worth mentioning
Inspect the synthetic cable periodically for fraying or UV damage, it holds up well but isn't indestructible. And don't exceed the 3,500 lb rated pull, that number already accounts for a safety margin, so pushing past it isn't worth the risk to the motor or the cable.Questions people usually ask
Will this fit my ATV?It uses a standard 4-hole mounting pattern (3.00 in. x 4.875 in.), which fits most ATV winch mounts, but confirm against your bike's existing setup before ordering.Steel cable or synthetic, which is better?Synthetic's lighter, easier to handle, and safer if it snaps under load since it doesn't recoil like steel. This winch comes with synthetic already installed.How much can it actually pull?Rated line pull is 3,500 lbs.What's the gear ratio, and does it matter?180:1. Higher ratios generally mean more pulling power at a slower line speed, which is what you want for winching, not speed.Is it sealed against water and mud?Yes, it's built with water-resistant seals to keep the elements out of the internals.
