Short Product Summary
The Ironman 4x4 Frontier 12,000lb Wire Winch pairs a low-maintenance steel wire rope with a 6HP motor, suited to vehicles weighing 2,700–3,650kg. It carries a wireless remote and an IP68 rating.
Why This Product
Wire rope suits drivers who want a low-maintenance rope. This winch drives that wire rope with a 6HP motor, and its wireless remote can also be plugged in directly if you'd prefer a wired connection. An IP68 rating means a splash through a river crossing won't put it out of action, and the mechanical design draws on more than ten years of refinement.
Key Features
- 12,000lb rated line pull – suited to vehicles weighing 2,700–3,650kg
- Steel wire rope – super-strong and low maintenance
- IP68 submersible rating – keeps working after a dunking to 1 metre for up to 30 minutes
- Wireless remote with plug-in option – control it from a distance, or wire it in as a backup
- Built-in breather – manages internal pressure and moisture over years of use
- 6HP motor – runs the mechanical design shared across the Frontier winch family
- 5-year mechanical warranty – covers the winch mechanism after purchase
Ideal For
- Drivers who want a low-maintenance rope and are happy with the extra weight of wire over synthetic
- Owners of 2,700–3,650kg vehicles who want the 12,000lb Frontier with wire rope
- Anyone replacing an older wire-rope winch who wants to stay with wire rope
- Off-road drivers who cross rivers or wet terrain often and want a winch rated to keep working after submersion

Optional Fitment / Upgrade Notes
A few things worth checking first:
- Your winch cradle or bull bar is rated to carry a winch this size — ask us to confirm if unsure
- Whether wire rope suits how and where you'll be recovering, versus the synthetic option
- How you'll power it: ask us about the battery connection and cabling for a winch this size
Complete Your Setup
Compare it with the rest of our winch range, check bumpers built for winch fitment, or stock up on off-road recovery gear for the trip.
