Winch tests. The normal winch test is 110% of the rated line pull and the winch brake is required to maintain this load clear of the support surface. It is often referred to as a Line Pull test and it proves the capacity of the winch, and the capacity of the winch brake to maintain the load above the support surface. Newly designed winches are tested to 1.25 x the line pull to prove the winch's capabilities. 3, record 1, English, - line%20pull
