Plumettaz TL 3119 DR-420 Mechanic Capstan Winch Trailer
The Plumettaz TL 3119 DR-420/9 is a Honda petrol mechanic trailer-mounted capstan winch for underground telecommunications and power cable laying in pre-installed ducts, open trenches, and subducting operations. Delivers 3,000 daN pulling force in 1st gear and 1,500 daN in 2nd gear with 420 m of 9 mm rope. Powered by a Honda Gasoline GX340 SXE engine at 8.0 kW. The most compact model in the TL 3119 family at 565 kg — highest pulling force in the compact frame range. Dual capstan system, automatic overload limiter, and automatic rope storage as standard.
More Information
The Plumettaz TL 3119 DR-420/9 packs 3,000 daN of pulling force into the most compact trailer frame in the range — a Honda petrol mechanic winch built for high-load cable pulling where site access is tight and rope runs are shorter.
Key Features
-
-
- 3,000 daN pulling force in 1st gear — highest pulling force in the compact frame family; 1,500 daN in 2nd gear — the highest 2nd gear pulling force across all nine variants
- Honda Gasoline GX340 SXE — 8.0 kW — more powerful than the TL 2019 mechanic variants; delivers stronger pulling in a compact frame
- Mechanic direct drive — simple, robust drivetrain with minimal moving parts; straightforward to operate and maintain on site
- 420 m rope capacity — 9 mm rope; suited to shorter cable runs and sites where repositioning is practical
- Dual-speed capstan — 5–11.9 m/min in 1st gear and 9.8–23.5 m/min in 2nd gear; pay-out at up to 0–80 m/min
- Lightest in the compact family — 565 kg without rope; easy to tow and manoeuvre on tight access sites
- Dual capstan system — constant speed and force; automatic rope storage via swivelling pulley for low-tension winding regardless of pulling force
- Automatic overload limiter — stops the winch instantly on overload; reverse gear for safe and controlled rope unwinding
