Fulton has produced marine and utility trailer hardware for more than a century, and its jacks, winches and couplers are a standard for light and medium-duty trailering. The XLT and F2 series cover swivel and fixed jacks, hand and powered winches from 1,500 to 3,200 pounds, and couplers built to keep working in wet, salty conditions.
With more than a hundred years of production behind it, Fulton has become the reference point for light and medium-duty trailer hardware, particularly on the marine side. That environment is the toughest test a trailer component faces. A boat trailer is reversed into fresh or salt water on every launch and left to sit wet, which finds every weakness in plating, sealing and material choice. Fulton's stated position is that the brand performs best when the weather is at its worst, and its product engineering reflects that. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Draw-Tite, Bulldog, Tekonsha and Wesbar.
Marine and utility jacks anchor the line. The XLT Series marine jack uses a bolt-through swivel mount built from three-dimensionally formed heavy-gauge steel stampings with a proprietary bushing material, a combination chosen to minimise deflection under tongue load while keeping the swivel action working after years of exposure. The F2 Series takes corrosion resistance further as the industry's only extruded aluminium marine jack with an anodised finish, which removes the rust problem at its source rather than coating over it. The wider trailer jack range covers topwind, sidewind and drop-leg configurations.
Trailer winches pull boats onto bunks and rollers. XLT Series winches use efficient gear ratios, full-length drum bearings, oil-impregnated shaft bushings and a Comfort Grip handle that makes the last few turns under load bearable, in 1,500 and 1,800 pound capacities. F2 Series winches use an enclosed frame for a cleaner look and added protection, in 1,600, 2,000 and 3,200 pound models, including two-speed options that trade line speed for cranking effort.
Couplers complete the range, including A-frame couplers matched to common tongue sizes and load ratings, serving boat owners, utility trailer users and trailer manufacturers.

Cequent trailer winches are available in capacities ranging from 900 lbs to 3700 lbs. The exact capacity depends on the specific model. Always refer to the stamped markings or decals on your winch to confirm the rated capacity. If uncertain, contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-632-3290 or www.cequentgroup.com.
Cequent trailer winches are designed for manual operation only. The load rating is based on an intermittent duty cycle. The winch requires a maximum of 45 lbs of handle force to pull the rated load. If you cannot crank the winch with one hand, you are potentially overloading it.
No. Only winches with a hub diameter of 1 3/4" can accommodate steel cable. Winches designed for steel cable have a larger drum hub to reduce bending fatigue and extend cable life. Check the Winch Information Chart for your specific model to confirm steel cable compatibility. If your model shows "N/A" under the Steel Cable column, that winch cannot use steel cable.
Cequent trailer winches support three line attachment methods: rope (textile), strap, or steel cable. Not all models support all three options. Rope requires no bolts or clamps and is woven through the drum outer wall and secured beneath itself. Strap uses a cross bolt through drum holes. Steel cable is only available on models with a 1 3/4" hub diameter and is looped around the drum bearing. Consult the Winch Information Chart for your specific model's compatible line types.
Three 3/8" diameter grade-5 bolts are required to mount the winch. These bolts must be torqued to 28-30 ft-lbs. Mounting bolts vary in length for each application, so you must verify the correct length for your specific installation. The winch stand must be capable of supporting at least five times the rated capacity of the winch, and the mounting surface must equal or exceed the footprint of the winch frame. Mounting hardware is not supplied with the winch.
A grade-5 bolt of the largest possible diameter is required for strap mounting. The specific bolt size depends on your winch model. Refer to the Winch Information Chart under "Strap Bolt Size" for your capacity rating. For example, 900-1500 lbs models use M6 x 65mm (metric) or 1/4" x 2-3/4" (standard), while 2000+ lbs models use M8 x 66mm (metric) or 3/8" x 2-3/4" (standard).
Yes, if attaching a strap without a strap anchor to a plastic-covered winch, you must remove the drum bolt and gently separate the plastic cover to allow the winch drum to be removed. Install the strap according to the instructions, then re-install the winch drum as it was before. If your winch has a strap anchor included, you can pass the strap loop under the cross bolt, insert the strap anchor in the strap loop, and pull tight without removing the cover.
Attaching a rope requires no bolts, nuts, or clamps. The rope must weave through the drum outer wall and be secured beneath itself, as shown in the manual illustration. Always maintain a minimum of three complete wraps of rope on the drum.
Pass the cable from the inside of the drum through one of the dimpled holes in the outer plate. Loop the cable around the drum bearing, under itself, and leave 1" of cable extending past the clamp location. Tighten the clamp nuts to approximately 2 ft-lbs. Neatly wrapping the cable is necessary to reduce the chance of kinking or fraying. Always maintain a minimum of three complete wraps of cable on the drum.
Assemble the handle onto the flatted input shaft end. Tighten the 1/2" - 13 locknut against the handle and torque to 22-25 ft-lbs. Do not over-torque the locknut.
The 1/2" - 13 handle locknut must be torqued to 22-25 ft-lbs. Do not over-torque, as this can damage the handle assembly.
On single-speed winches, torque the drum locknut to 9-10 ft-lbs. Do not over-tighten, as this may crush the spacer between the frame and prevent the drum from turning.
On two-speed winches, torque the drum locknut to 24 ft-lbs. Do not over-tighten, as this may crush the spacer between the frame and prevent the drum from turning.
Tighten the clamp nuts to approximately 2 ft-lbs when attaching a steel cable to the drum.
The three 3/8" diameter grade-5 mounting bolts must be torqued to 28-30 ft-lbs. Check the final installation to ensure the winch is secure to the mounting structure.
Winches require a maximum of 45 lbs of handle force to pull their rated load. Excessive force in turning the winch handle may indicate overload. If you cannot crank the winch with one hand, you are potentially overloading the winch.
Always maintain a minimum of three complete wraps of rope, strap, or cable on the drum. This applies whether you are using rope, strap, or steel cable. Never allow the line to completely unwind from the drum.
A loud clicking sound from the ratchet must be heard when lifting the load. If a loud clicking sound is not heard, do not use the winch and replace the ratchet components immediately. This indicates the ratchet pawl is not functioning properly and the load cannot be safely held.
No. Winches are not designed to secure boats to trailers while towing. Boat tie-downs should be used for this purpose. Using a winch for this application is unsafe and violates the product's design specifications.
Assure there is adequate safety factor of at least 3 times the maximum load for all components used. This means if you are lifting a 1000 lb load, all components in the system (winch, cable, attachment points, stand) must be rated for at least 3000 lbs.
Before each use, perform the following inspections: (1) Inspect rope, strap, or cable and replace if damaged. (2) Check mounting hardware for proper tightness and tighten if necessary. (3) Inspect the cable or strap and its attachment to make sure they are not damaged. Never use them if they are worn, kinked, or frayed. If the cable or attachment breaks, the cable will whip violently, causing property damage, serious bodily injury, and/or death.
Apply a drop or two of #30 weight engine oil to each bushing I.D. and to the ratchet pawl pivot points. Maintain a thin layer of chassis grease on the gear teeth. This lubrication should be applied before use and periodically during operation.
Periodically check mounting hardware for proper torque and tighten if necessary. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but regular inspection before each use is recommended to ensure the winch remains securely mounted.
Always replace bent, broken, or worn parts before using this product. This includes the rope, strap, cable, ratchet components, handle, and any structural parts that show damage or excessive wear.
Refer to the Winch Information Chart in the manual. The chart lists the gear ratio for each winch capacity. Single-speed winches have one gear ratio (e.g., 3.25:1, 4.1:1, 5.1:1), while two-speed winches have two ratios (e.g., 4.1:1 & 9.8:1, 5.1:1 & 12.2:1). The specific ratio depends on your winch's rated capacity.
Handle length varies by winch capacity. Refer to the Winch Information Chart for your specific model. Handle lengths range from 7" to 10" depending on the winch's rated capacity and gear ratio.
Drum hub diameter varies by winch capacity and is listed in the Winch Information Chart. Hub diameters range from 0.64" to 1.75". Only winches with a hub diameter of 1 3/4" (1.75") can accommodate steel cable. Smaller hub diameters are designed for rope or strap only.
The rope storage capacity depends on your winch model and is listed in the Winch Information Chart under "Rope" and "Drum Storage Capacity". For example, a 900 lbs winch can store 36' x 1/4" rope, while a 1800 lbs winch can store 20' x 7/16" rope. Capacity is based on direct line pull on the first layer of line on the drum and is reduced as line builds up on the drum.
Steel cable storage capacity depends on your winch model and is listed in the Winch Information Chart under "Steel Cable" and "Drum Storage Capacity". For example, a 2000 lbs two-speed winch can store 20' x 7/16" cable, while a 3700 lbs winch can store 185' x 7/32" cable. Only winches with a 1 3/4" hub diameter can accommodate steel cable. Capacity is based on direct line pull on the first layer and is reduced as cable builds up on the drum.
Strap storage capacity depends on your winch model and is listed in the Winch Information Chart under "Strap" and "Drum Storage Capacity". For example, a 900 lbs winch can store 15' x 2" strap, while a 1800 lbs winch can store 20' x 2" strap. Capacity is based on direct line pull on the first layer of strap on the drum and is reduced as strap builds up on the drum.
Cequent trailer winches are available in capacities from 900 lbs to 3700 lbs. Verify your winch's rated capacity on the stamped markings or decals. The winch stand must support at least 5 times the rated capacity, and the mounting surface must equal or exceed the winch frame footprint. Contact Cequent at 1-800-632-3290 if you need help confirming fitment.
You need three 3/8" diameter grade-5 bolts, torqued to 28-30 ft-lbs. Bolt length varies by application. The winch stand must support at least 5 times the winch's rated capacity. Mounting hardware is not supplied.
The manual does not specify whether drilling is required. This depends on your trailer's existing mounting structure. Consult your trailer manufacturer or a professional installer to determine if drilling is necessary for your specific application.
Torque the 1/2" - 13 handle locknut to 22-25 ft-lbs. Do not over-torque.
Single-speed winches: 9-10 ft-lbs. Two-speed winches: 24 ft-lbs. Do not over-tighten, as this may crush the spacer and prevent the drum from turning.
Never exceed the maximum rated capacity stamped on your winch. Capacities range from 900 lbs to 3700 lbs depending on the model. Winches require a maximum of 45 lbs of handle force at rated load; if you cannot crank with one hand, you are overloading.
Always maintain a minimum of three complete wraps of rope, strap, or cable on the drum. Never allow the line to completely unwind.
Apply a drop or two of #30 weight engine oil to each bushing I.D. and ratchet pawl pivot points. Maintain a thin layer of chassis grease on the gear teeth. Perform this before use and periodically during operation.
A loud clicking sound from the ratchet must be heard when lifting the load. If you do not hear this sound, do not use the winch. The ratchet pawl is not functioning properly and cannot safely hold the load. Replace the ratchet components immediately before attempting to use the winch again.
Excessive force in turning the winch handle may indicate overload. Winches require a maximum of 45 lbs of handle force to pull their rated load. If you cannot crank the winch with one hand, you are potentially overloading the winch. Stop immediately and reduce the load. Never attempt to force the handle.
No. Never use a cable, strap, or rope if it is worn, kinked, or frayed. If the cable or attachment breaks, the cable will whip violently, causing property damage, serious bodily injury, and/or death. Always inspect the cable and its attachment before each use and replace immediately if damaged.
The drum locknut may have been over-tightened, which can crush the spacer between the frame and prevent the drum from turning. On single-speed winches, the locknut should be torqued to 9-10 ft-lbs. On two-speed winches, torque to 24 ft-lbs. If the drum is stuck, loosen the locknut slightly to restore smooth operation, being careful not to under-tighten so the strap attachment remains secure.
Ensure the ratchet pawl is fully engaged in the forward or loading position before releasing the handle. Gradually release the handle to verify the ratchet pawl is holding the load. If the load drops, the ratchet pawl is not properly engaged. Re-engage the pawl and try again. If the problem persists, the ratchet components may be damaged and require replacement.
The cable may not be properly attached to the drum. When attaching steel cable, pass it from the inside of the drum through one of the dimpled holes in the outer plate, loop it around the drum bearing under itself, and leave 1" of cable extending past the clamp location. Tighten the clamp nuts to approximately 2 ft-lbs. Ensure the cable is neatly wrapped to prevent slipping. If slipping continues, the clamp may be loose and requires tightening.
