Mining

Winch Hire Australia have been supplying most conveyor belt companies around Australia with their winches, when changing out massive conveyors in the mining regions. Our ZAD winches are perfect for these types of belt changes even the larger ones that extend more than 400 meters in length.

Winch Hire Australia has provided many mining companies nationally and internationally with specialised air hoists for underground applications. Air hoists are ideal for underground work as they giver off no toxic fumes and have a duty cycle of 100% meaning there is no down time for the internals of the hoist to cool, it can be used 100% of the time.
