MacArtney CORMAC Q stainless steel winches are dependable and versatile systems in self-contained protective frames. The CORMAC Q series includes
CORMAC Q4 and Q5.

Designed and engineered for optimal durability CORMAC Q winches require minimal maintenance. Customers can choose between specifications including speed, pull, motor size, and cable capacity. The modular outline of the CORMAC Q design ensures that the winches are easily accommodated for a variety of tasks.

CORMAC Q winches come with several intelligent features which allow for accurate and effective equipment handling. A soft-start function makes the winch easy to handle, improves equipment manoeuvrability and protects the motor and gear.

Both CORMAC Q4 and Q5 are fitted with an electrically driven level wind, allowing for significantly improved spooling performance, while making it possible to easily change cable diameter. CORMAC Q winches are prepared for a Focal model 180 electric/electro-optical slip ring.
