Warrior Winches Gladiator Series is part of our new premium range, where we have developed a winch with both performance and design in mind. It is perfectly suited for off-road, trailers, trucks, Jeeps, SUVs, 4x4s, and smaller recovery operations.
The Gladiator Series continues to redefine winching with unmatched durability, performance, and style. In our pursuit of the perfect winch, we have developed a new 2-in-1 hand controller. The controller is wired until you unplug the cable, at which point it automatically becomes wireless with a range of 15 meters. If you want it wired again, simply plug the cable back in. You can also easily recharge the handset via USB-C when not in use. The winch also features built-in thermal overload protection, so you don’t have to worry about overheating or damage when winching in extreme environments or during long, tough pulls. As a step up in the premium class, the Gladiator Series comes equipped with the Armortek Extreme synthetic rope, the same used on Warrior Winches’ military-grade winches. It features a highly durable outer sheath that makes it extremely resistant to abrasive wear and prevents snagging or breakage.
Our new patented external brake design keeps heat away from the drum, reducing stress and wear on your winch rope, while our HRC50 all-steel gears deliver superior durability and high efficiency for sustained pulling power.
We’ve also equipped the Gladiator Series with comprehensive IP68 waterproofing for both electronics and mechanics, along with a silver-copper motor with copper brush holders. To protect the winch from corrosion, in addition to its IP rating, it features a special powder coating and stainless steel mounting hardware. The electronics are housed in an aluminum cover—rather than the usual plastic—mounted above the drum, but can be removed for custom placement.
Combine all this with Warrior Winches’ limited lifetime warranty, including 7 years on electrical components, and you have a world-class winch.
These winches are our top premium choice for a reason—and they look as good as they perform.

These winch ropes feature a double-braided construction consisting of a 12-strand core with a tightly woven, heavy-duty outer sheath. The benefits of Armortek Extreme are truly outstanding! First and foremost, the construction means the core is highly protected from UV radiation and dirt, preventing premature aging. Additionally, the outer braid acts as a robust wear layer along the entire length of the rope, making it far more resistant to abrasion and wear than standard synthetic ropes. This rope will last you longer and withstand the harshest environments. Armortek Extreme comes standard on Warrior Winches’ military-grade T-1000 series as well as the Gladiator Series.
