The Harken Winch Protect-Connect is a specialized stabilization accessory designed for use with the Harken LokHead Winch during long raises, heavy-load operations, and drill-powered applications. By providing additional support and stability to the winch system, the Protect-Connect helps improve performance, reduce equipment wear, and increase operational efficiency when using powered drills.
Recommended by Harken for drill-driven winch operations, the Protect-Connect increases the maximum allowable drill speed from 60 RPM to 400 RPM when properly installed. This allows operators to complete lifting and lowering tasks more efficiently while maintaining safe winch operation. Designed for compatibility with NFPA and EN-certified LokHead Winch models manufactured in 2020 or later, the Protect-Connect works in conjunction with the Power Tool Adapter and standard drill chucks to create a versatile powered winch system. Mounting hardware is included for quick installation.
