Atlas Gains Speed to Match Strength

Winona, Minn. - The Thern Atlas Winch has an established reputation as a work-site workhorse for multiple construction tasks. Now Thern adds four Atlas models with substantially higher line speeds – up to 97 fpm in the 3 HP model. Elevator installers and other specialty contractors value these Atlas winches for their quick speed in both up and down directions, two-handled portability, large cable capacity for multi-story lifts and their multiple voltage configurations. Like other Thern Atlas winches these high-speed models have machine cut worm gearing, oil seals, internal mechanical wet brakes for positive load control and ball bearings and self-aligning bronze bearings support shafts. Many other options, modifications and accessories are available.Thern, Inc. is a major designer and manufacturer of winches, cranes and hoists for virtually unlimited industrial applications.
