The Warrior Winches Gladiator Range is our premium 4×4 recovery winch range, engineered for serious off-road enthusiasts, recovery specialists and professionals who demand the best from their equipment. Combining high-performance motors, advanced protection and heavy-duty construction, Gladiator winches are built to deliver the pinnacle in recovery performance when the terrain gets tough.
The Gladiator F-Type 8,000lb 12V electric winch delivers 8,000lb (3,629kg) of rated line pull from a powerful 4.3kW motor, giving you the recovery capability to tackle demanding off-road terrain, steep inclines and difficult vehicle recoveries. With a fast 11m/min no-load line speed, Armortek Extreme Synthetic Rope and a range of advanced protection systems, it is engineered for 4×4 owners who expect serious performance from their recovery equipment.
Power that keeps you moving. The 4.3kW 12V motor delivers up to 8,000lb (3,629kg) of line pull through a 196:1 planetary gearing system, providing the torque needed when your vehicle is deep in challenging terrain. With an 11m/min no-load line speed, the F-Type also helps you get through the initial rope deployment and recovery process faster, reducing time spent waiting around when you need to get moving.
Built for serious 4×4 recovery. The Gladiator F-Type 8,000lb is designed around the demands of modern 4×4 recovery. Its full metal armour protects the motor and geartrain, while HRC50 full steel gears provide a durable foundation for demanding winching operations. Stainless steel mounting hardware adds further corrosion resistance, helping the winch stand up to regular exposure to mud, water and harsh outdoor conditions.
Extend the life of your rope. The patented external braking system moves braking heat away from the winch drum, helping reduce heat build-up around the synthetic rope during demanding recoveries. This design helps minimise heat-related rope wear while maintaining controlled braking performance when you need to manage a heavy load.
Armortek Extreme. Ready for the rough stuff. The 25m x 8mm Armortek Extreme Synthetic Rope combines lightweight handling with serious abrasion resistance, making it easier to deploy and handle during recovery. The hawse fairlead provides a smooth path for the rope as it moves on and off the drum, while the large steel drum helps reduce unnecessary rope wear.
Protection for the toughest conditions. The Gladiator F-Type is sealed to an IP68 rating, helping protect the winch against dust and water ingress in demanding environments. Thermal overload protection provides an additional layer of protection during hard pulls, helping safeguard the winch from excessive heat when the recovery gets serious.
Stay in control from the best position. The 2-in-1 rechargeable wired and wireless remote gives you the flexibility to operate the winch from inside the vehicle or from up to 15m away. Being able to step away from the vehicle gives you a clearer view of the recovery and lets you operate the winch from the most practical position. The included USB charging cable makes it easy to recharge the remote in the vehicle when you’re away from home.
F-Type flexibility, built into the box. The F-Type comes supplied with a control box relocation plate, giving you greater flexibility when positioning the control pack on your 4×4. This can be particularly useful where space around the winch mounting area is limited or where you want to achieve a cleaner installation.
Premium recovery performance. No compromises. The Gladiator F-Type combines serious pulling power, fast line speed, advanced braking, premium synthetic rope and extensive environmental protection in one purpose-built 4×4 recovery winch. Measuring 558 x 166 x 255mm and weighing 32.3kg, it provides substantial recovery capability while remaining practical to install on a wide range of 4×4 vehicles.
Backed by a 7-year warranty, the Gladiator F-Type 8,000lb is built for those who push their vehicles further, tackle more demanding terrain and expect their recovery equipment to perform when it matters most.
