{"product_id":"12000-lb-12v-planetary-recovery-winch","title":"12,000 lb Electric Recovery Winch | 12V Planetary","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe PS12000 is the most popular winch in the Pierce 12V planetary recovery line — 12,000 lb pulling capacity at 5.5 HP, 390-amp peak draw, with 94 ft of ⅜ in wire rope on the drum. The default pick for professional towing rigs, equipment trailers, and skid-steer recovery work where 12K covers most of the loads you'll see.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow does the PS12000 compare to the PS9000?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSame motor (5.5 HP), same gear ratio (265:1), same drum capacity (94 ft of ⅜ in rope). The difference is rated pulling capacity — 12K vs. 9K — and a slightly higher amp draw (390 vs. 360 peak) on the same electrical hardware. Pick the 12K if your typical load is over 7,500 lb (where the 9K would be near rated capacity). Pick the 9K if you want the fastest line speed in the family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12,000 lb rated pulling capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12V DC, 5.5 HP motor — 390 amp peak draw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-stage planetary gear, 265:1 ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e21.3 fpm max line speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic built-in drum brake — holds load on release, no rollback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSliding ring-gear clutch — manual engagement at the winch for free-spool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast metal construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes ⅜ in × 94 ft wire rope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended battery: 650 CCA | Wire: 2 gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePierce SKU PS12000 — typically in stock, fast turnaround\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor higher line speed at lighter capacity, see the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/9000-lb-12v-planetary-recovery-winch\"\u003e9,000 lb 12V Planetary Recovery Winch\u003c\/a\u003e.
