Born in the rugged American Northwest and developed alongside the world’s first track driven dozers, CARCO is a global force in tractor tail winch manufacturing for pipeline, construction & forestry operations.
The first CARCO winches were introduced in 1932 for the Pacific Northwest logging industry for use with cleat tractors and logging arches. Developed alongside the world’s first track driven dozers, CARCO quickly became a staple in forestry, construction and pipeline applications.
Over the last 90 years, subsequent generations of CARCO products have continued to set the standard for tractor winches, creating a balance of pulling power, speed and overall machine control.
Today’s equipment is designed to adapt to multiple working conditions while improving operator comfort, reducing fatigue, and creating safer, more productive lifting and pulling environments.
CARCO winches and pipe layer hoists are engineered, built and tested in the United States with offices and manufacturing facilities in Oklahoma.
One of the newest CARCO tail winches, the H50 Hystat includes a dedicated closed loop hydrostatic circuit and is equipped with market-leading electronic controls. This introduction propels CARCO to the forefront of compatibility in the 50,000 lb (22,680 kg) line pull class in terms of working with contemporary crawler dozers outfitted with smart machine technology.
