The Recovery Load Calculator is currently undergoing the closed group testing required before it can be made available generally on the Google Play Store. Click here if you'd like to join the closed test group, or to register your interest and we'll let you know when it's publically available.
Configure the Recovery Load Calculator with the rated values for your winch, the weight of your vehicle and other factors and it'll calculate, using industry-standard methodology*, the approximate total recovery load. If you've also configured your winch in the app, it'll also tell you if that's within the rated limits for each layer on the drum.
*This calculator uses algorithms published by the International 4WD Trainers Association, also as used by the Royal Australian Electrical & Mechanical Engineers Corps. It is not a substitute for formal training in vehicle recovery techniques, and is supplied for guidance only and for equipment in good condition, in the interests of safer vehicle recovery. You are responsible for your own safety and that of others nearby. You should be fully aware of the inherent risks in vehicle recovery operations, and procedures and precautions to be taken to minimise those risks. The results so calculated are estimates only, and no warranty, either express or implied, is given that they will result in a successful recovery, nor that they will not result in damage or injury.
