Rated line capacity is the pulling capacity of a winch which it can handle during the single line pull, without the use of any other devise such as snatch block. This is the measure of pull on the level ground on the first layer. While selecting a winch choose the winch the rated line pull of which is at least 50% greater than your gross vehicle weight (Weight of the vehicle loaded fully). This is done taking in account the fact that the there is a drop of 12% for every next wrap on the drum. A 9,000 lbs winch would have line pull of nearly 7, 000 lbs on the third wrap.
