The WARN VR EVO 12-S Winch is built for 3/4-ton and 1-ton trucks, large SUVs, and heavy off-road rigs that demand reliable pulling power without the cost of a premium competition winch. Delivering a robust 12,000 lb single-line pulling capacity, the VR EVO 12-S combines fast line speed, efficient power draw, and rugged durability in a clean, tactical package.
Featuring IP68-rated waterproof construction, the VR EVO 12-S is sealed against water, mud, and debris for dependable performance in harsh conditions. A series-wound motor paired with a 3-stage planetary geartrain provides strong, consistent pulls with lower amp draw, while the Albright® contactor ensures long-term electrical reliability. The relocatable control pack allows flexible installation options for low-profile mounting setups.
This model includes 90 feet of 3/8-inch synthetic rope for reduced weight and improved safety, paired with a hawse fairlead. Control is handled through a 2-in-1 wired and wireless remote, giving you flexibility whether you’re close to the rig or operating from a distance.
